The song was about a follow-up letter sent to John by his former sweetheart, who realized she had done wrong by marrying John's brother Don and wants to return to him, and is willing to "undo the awful wrong I've done." John reads the letter and decides he doesn't want to "do him like he done me" and wishes them well and decides to reenlist.
