Wikipedia:
Paul McCartney explained that he based the song’s lyrical theme on Bob Dylan’s 1965 Maggie’s Farm and that “the idea was to just get a fantasy song about this person Junior.” McCartney said that, in contrast to the degree of thought Dylan applied to his song-writing, Junior’s Farm “has silly words and basically all it means is, ‘Let’s get out of the city.’ … As for reading deep meanings into the words, people shouldn’t bother, there aren’t any.” (Spizer, Bruce: The Beatles Solo on Apple Records.)
