Wow, I never really thought about the meaning to this song. I just took it how I thought it meant.

It could possibly be about a guy who uses a girl, and she crying and whining, because she wants him, but he only comes around when he wants to... Reread the lyrics, I think that fits. :)

I agree with a bit of what the earlier poster said. The song seems to be about the main character not being ready to change his life or his "prowlin" ways. The girl has been contemplating a break-up but apparently has self-doubts over whether or not she can survive without this guy, whether or not she NEEDS him in her life.

The guy is basically telling her to give it a shot, maybe she'll find out that the doubts were false and the relationship and he never meant as much to her as she thought they did.

The narrator/guy keeps true to his credo, though, throughout the song. It doesn't matter where he is, where he'll be found, who wants him. The only time he truly will be able to be "found," and not in a geographical sense, but a spiritual/emotional sense, is when he himself decides to come around. Until then, you just can't force the relationship if it just doesn't feel right to someone.

I think this song is about this character not ready to commit to a relationship." I heard you cryin loud, all the way across town" is a lyric that means he has been avioding this girl in some attempt to move in or marry him

it is an awsome song, great melody, and easy to play on the guitar

I think this song is about a guy telling a girl that there's no point going to look for another boyfriend because she has him. However he's only there to use her so she may aswell accept that fact and stop crying about it. He's being honest about the fact he's nothing but a sleeze but he knows she wants him so he's saying there's no point crying about it.

This song doesn't necessarily have to be a boyfriend/girlfriend situation. I think it's about this guy and this girl who both like each other but they aren't together. The girl wants to be with the guy, and although he wants to be with her, he enjoys being single much more than he wants to be with the girl at the time. (You've been searching for that someone,
and it's me out on the prowl)
He knows that he would like to be with her one day but for now he just wants to relax and enjoy his life as it is. (I'm just roaming for the moment
Sleazin' my back yard)
He's telling her that she doesn't have to search for another guy because when he's ready he'll be right there ready to be with her. ( No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around)
