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/
{Hook- Ciara& BowWow}
I ain't ever had nobody show me all the things that you done showed me
In that special way I feel when you hold me
We gon' always be together baby
Thats what you told me and
I believe it cuz I ain't never had
Nobody do me like you
[Bow Wow]
Now I done been with different kind of girls/ So I gotta seen them all
/But ain't none of them at all (like you)
And I done seen the best of the best
Baby, still I ain't impressed cuz
Ain't none of them at all (like you)
If you know how I feel when I chill
If I'm seen with a girl
Then she gotta be just (like you)
And baby thats the way I feel
And I ain't got no choice
But for me to keep it real
Cuz when we/ first got together
Starting hanging out you was/ skeptical at first
Had to figure out if
I was the kind of guy that
Would try to dog you out but
I ain't that kind of guy you try to make me out
You found out when you turned to my baby
I showed them other brothers
How to treat a lady
I let you drive when I ride that Mercedes
And I ain't trippin' or actin' shady
Cuz baby you know
{Chorus}
I ain't ever had nobody show me all the things
That you done showed me
In that special way I feel when you hold me
We gon' always be together baby
Thats what you told me and
I believe it cuz I ain't never had
Nobody do me like you
(Ciara)
And everytime I think about you I smile
When you ride, when you call, when you come around
Your love is amazing to me
I can't wait till I see you (I wanna be with you again)
And everytime your out on the road (I'll make a trip)
And whenever I'm doing a show (Don't you forget)
That I'm your main chick
Who got that game chick
One in the same chick
The one you can hang with
{Chorus}
I ain't ever had nobody show me all the things
That you done showed me
In that special way I feel when you hold me
We gon' always be together baby
Thats what you told me and
I believe it cuz I ain't never had
Nobody do me like you
[Bow Wow]
Ok we/ hit the mall, pop tags
Spend a few G's [Cheesin']
Hit the runway to a new season
It ain't nothing
Spoil the one I care for
Feel like I ain't doin' enough
That's when I share more
I give you this, give you that
What chu need love
You know I got it
Holla at me if you need love
And affection cuz I'll be your protection
Kind of hard job but I'll do till perfection
And you can tell that I ain't tryin' to let you go
I get with you when I can
So thats how I let you know
And you be trippin' cuz sometimes I gotta go
But chu the first one
I holla to right after my show
Hey now I was trippin' in a sense
I was tense but my body's loose around you
But I'ma do without you
I gotta get it together, say whateva
Cuz since I met you my life seems so better
{Chorus}
I ain't ever had nobody show me all the things
That you done showed me
In a special way I feel when you hold me
We gon' always be together baby
That is what you told and
I believe it cuz I ain't never had

“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.
