A horse with no name

Who was growing up when this song first came out? I have never understood the meaning of the song, and looking at google, it seems that everybody is grasping at straws, too. I'm wondering what inspired the writer? And what "chord" did the song eventually hit with everyone else?

2. often referred to as "one of the dumbest songs ever written" . . .

still, it is catchy and easy to listen to -- for awhile . . .
