    This song for the better part of it is about train hopping culture and it's negative aspects dealing with escapism and alcoholism. Not that I really stand firm on the whole subject as being negative. This is just more from personal experience. Train hopping can be really cool, but really freaking dangerous. I have done it before and you should really consider the risk and think about the people you care about when riding trains. I personally will never ride them again because I lost a very close friend from train hopping. The song is loosely based on him and was written well before he died.

lyrics

Let me sit you down and tell you that your head ain't screwed on right and that there is one million possibilities besides anxiously pulling out your hair. Said your catching a train down south to solve all of your whiskey withdraws I said you got a bomb strapped to your back and that your not coming back. Said you got a better life to live so move over I got a life to live. After a couple of years your at my door like you always were before, with overalls and a dog and a sunburned face saying that you know it all, but in my nose I can smell the booze on the breath that you blow, and I know the time did fly but your whiskey problems are still alive.
