My mother told me (in the 70s) that the song was about a guy who'd been in prison.*
Once I started working in the blue collar world during a war, though, it became all about the troops.
* I wasn't allowed to watch a whole lot of tv in those days, but I was allowed to watch the Tony Orlando show, The Captain & Tenille, Donnie & Marie, and the Carol Burnett Show. You know, stuff related to my *career*.
Ok.. so, I know I have said this before lol... but this time it's like 99.99% going to happen...
I'm heading over to Canada in february, as long as I get the time off from work. Assuming they allow me to take 3 weeks off (which they said they probably would), I'm going to try to visit Cory for a few days at some point, so if it happens to be a time when you can make it over, you should come and see me =D So yeah, think about it =D
