I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Chill out
What ya hating for?
I'm punk
Just like you now are
I'm only 17 you see
You should believe
That nobody else
Wears socks on their arms
And skates as bad as me!
I know
I'm so punk so I go get intoxicated
And I don't know why
People call me pop, it gets me so frustrated
And I shop at Hot Topic
And get a 2-for-1 deal on all my ties
Honestly you hate me because I always fake it
Oh, oh, oh
Look at the spikes on my arm
If that ain't punk, then ya know that my shoes are
I am Canadian and my guitarist has blue hair (he's so punk)
People call me Britney Spears
And it makes me fill with tears
My frequent buyer card at Hot Topic has many skulls
I know
I'm so punk so I go get intoxicated
And I don't know why
People call me pop, it gets me so frustrated
And I shop at Hot Topic
And get a 2-for-1 deal on all my ties
Honestly you hate me because I always fake it
Oh, oh, oh
What ya hating for?
I'm punk
Just like you now are
I'm only 17 you see
You should believe
That nobody else
Wears socks on their arms
And skates as bad as me!
I know
I'm so punk so I go get intoxicated
And I don't know why
People call me pop, it gets me so frustrated
And I shop at Hot Topic
And get a 2-for-1 deal on all my ties
Honestly you hate me because I always fake it
Oh, oh, oh
Look at the spikes on my arm
If that ain't punk, then ya know that my shoes are
I am Canadian and my guitarist has blue hair (he's so punk)
People call me Britney Spears
And it makes me fill with tears
My frequent buyer card at Hot Topic has many skulls
I know
I'm so punk so I go get intoxicated
And I don't know why
People call me pop, it gets me so frustrated
And I shop at Hot Topic
And get a 2-for-1 deal on all my ties
Honestly you hate me because I always fake it
Oh, oh, oh

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
