Warrant - Uncle Tom's Cabin Meaning

Song Released: 1996
Uncle Tom's Cabin Lyrics
Just for the record let's get the story straight
Me and Uncle Tom were fishin' it was gettin' pretty late
Out on a cypress limb above the wishin' well
Where they say it got no bottom say it take you down to Hell
Over...

I think it had to do with his experience with the "industry"..Apparently sexual abuse is norm and he was abused when he was first starting out and its not something thats talked about...Hollywood/Entertainment Indudtry/elite etc has all kind of secrets they just cant talk about

I really like old army backpacks. That's why I like this song. This song is about the surplus of army backpacks and the scandal that ensued. I was sporting my old army Alice pack when I first heard this song. It was like warrant knew a little too much. They were definitely smuggling clown make-up to every country they visited while on tour. It was a cold and rainy summers Eve in Cocktussen Germany while stroking my new pet minx when it all came together and their jig was up. I shucked a bushel of corn before I went down that wishing well.

It's obviously about Harriet Tubman and George Washington Carver inventing the peanut. When I was a kid we threw peanuts into a wishing well because that was common place to do down here in FLORIDA. My grandparents taught me to do it as they had done because their forefathers had taught them. Therefore the wishing well in the song talks about the old southern custom OF CHUCKING PEANUTS and the murders done by the sheriff are symbolic of negro oppression. I don't understand why all this is so hard to understand unless you are a Yankee then I do understand although no Yankee would admit it because they know how to do everything better than anyone in the south. Hope this clears things up for the yankees who don't know what the song means.
