Cette chanson évoque le récit d’un marin qui doit quitter un navire après une longue et difficile traversée. L'ancien homme du bord conseille John de partir, soulignant que les temps sont durs et que les conditions de vie à bord sont désastreuses, avec de la nourriture avariée et des membres d'équipage difficiles à supporter. Le refrain répétitif renforce l'idée qu'il est temps de mettre fin à cette épreuve et de trouver une nouvelle voie. Cela fait écho aux luttes vécues en mer, symbolisant à la fois la fatigue et le soulagement d'un voyage que l'on achevait enfin.
