Jojo was a loner so he moved in order to make friends. His new friends were into marijuana and he needed to stop hanging out with them and go back to his old home, which he does and ends up making better friends and having a better life without pot!
This is the meaning I know from experience and my nickname was jojo.

I think in a way Paul is referring to both John and Yoko. He is saying John should go back to his Beatle life and yoko should go back home, should leave, should get away.

Songs about yoko - jojo kind of sounds like Yoko they are both unique names.. get back to where you once belong is referring to how Yoko was in the studio with John 24/7 and she was a 'loner' to the fame.

Jo Jo was a man that thought he was a loner . A city person that thought he could escape into the desert, after his time there he realized he could not stand the solitude and went back to the green of California ( Beverly Hills )Jo Jo was Paul who owned property there with his first wife Linda.

Jo Jo was the name of Linda Eastmans ex husband who live in Arizona and died in 2000.The song was in it's origional form a racist comment by Paul against the immigration of Pakistanis into the UK in the 1960's. The words were changed to suit a more commercial market(typical Paul Mc Cartney)and to ensure air play.I have seen the rough cut in the recording studio and it was not a happy scene.It was also a slur against anyone with a gender issue,sweet Loretta thought she was a woman etc. Everyone was told to get back to where they once belonged,but not in the UK.Even though Paul decribed Yoko as "not the brightest button"he did not aim this song at her out of his respect for John.
