A melancholy song for a melancholy mood. In my opinion, this song is overplayed, yet under appreciated. Its another song about the dangers of pretty young women and what can happen if you let your guard down. If you're not careful, they'll ship you off to Van Dieman's Land. Which they did until the 1850's. Van Dieman's land was changed to Tasmania which is now part of Australia.
