   A African American man is trying to get to his love in the south while trying to stay warm. He doesn't have warm enough clothes and asks for rides to get to her. He keeps moving forward and doesn't give up even though people don't think he should be in the south. When he gets there he either finds her or doesn't and continues to sing

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
