Default Love Shack

So I know its probably one of those common things that everyone should know:
but what does "tin roof rusted" mean in the song Love Shack?
I've heard a few suggestions in my lifetime but don't know what is right

It's another night in hell, Another child won't live to tell
Can you imagine what it's like to starve to death

And as we sit free and well, Another soldier has to yell
Tell my wife and children I love them in his last breath

C'mon now amen, amen, amen

"Tin Roof Rusted" suggests that the Love Shack hasn't been used in a while or is very old.

Once can assume from this that two or more people haven't used the Love Shack in a long time.

but the guy says, "you're what?" and that is the reply from the girl so how does it apply to the shack having a rusted tin roof?

I've heard that it means she is pregnant, or something of the likes.

If you see a faded sign by the side of the road that says
15 miles to the... Love Shack ! Love Shack yeah
I´m headin ´ down the Atlanta highway , lookin ´ for the love getaway
Heading for the love getaway , love getaway ,
I got me a car, it´s as big as a whale and we´re headin ´ on down
To the Love Shack
I got me a Chrysler , it seats about 20
So hurry up and bring your jukebox money
The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love Shack baby , Love Shack bay-bee.
Love baby , that´s where it´s at, Ooo love baby , that´s where it´s at
Sign says .. Woo... stay away fools , ´cause love rules at the Love Shack !
Well it´s set way back in the middle of a field ,
Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back
Glitter on the mattress
Glitter on the highway
Glitter on the front porch
Glitter on the hallway
The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together
Love Shack baby ! Love Shack , that´s where it´s at!
Huggin ´ and a kissin ´, dancin ´ and a lovin ´, wearin ´ next to nothing
Cause it´s hot as an oven
The whole shack shimmies ! The whole shack shimmies when everybody ´s
Movin ´ around and around and around !
Everybody ´s movin ´, everybody ´s groovin ´ baby !
Folks linin ´ up outside just to get down
Everybody ´s movin ´, everybody ´s groovin ´ baby
Funky little shack ! Funky little shack !
Hop in my Chrysler , it´s as big as a whale and it´s about to set sail !
I got me a car, it seats about 20
So hurry up and bring your jukebox money .
Bang bang bang on the door baby ! Knock a little louder baby !
Bang bang bang on the door baby ! I can´t hear you
You're what?... Tin roof , rusted !
Love Shack , baby Love Shack !
Love baby , that´s where it´s at
Huggin ´ and a kissin ´, dancin ´ and a lovin ´ at the love shack


Pregnant, or married, or something.
