Firstly, the words "red rover" are used simply to create a rhyme we're all familiar with. The song is about how people are victims of circumstance. Either we're often held back by our own doubts, or by the doubts that have been imposed upon or programmed into our psyches--more often than not, by our parents. For example, a father who feels that he has never amounted to anything may teach his son that he too will never amount to anything, and the son may grow to believe it. That's why Rosie says, "If you hold him back, he may never know." IE, don't impose your own weaknesses upon your child. Give them the opportunity to grow, free of the same doubts and limitations you've experienced. Hopefully, your child will know a kind of freedom and happiness you've never really known. It's a simple reminder that a child need not follow the parent's path and the parent needs to be conscious of this while raising their child.
