This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
She's an underdog who lives next door to me
She's always heard "you won't amount to anything"
And it kills me to watch the agony beyond her eyes
Tragic the way people pass her by
But now I realize that
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she takes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
She's original, never trying to fit in
She's got a way to always go against the grain
Oh, yeah
Someday they'll see how beautiful she really is
I know that last will be the first
The tables gonna turn 'cause
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she fakes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Maybe she'll be in a movie
Maybe she'll be in a song, yeah
Better pay her some attention
Before she's gone
She's an underdog, yeah
She means the world to me, yeah
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
She's always heard "you won't amount to anything"
And it kills me to watch the agony beyond her eyes
Tragic the way people pass her by
But now I realize that
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she takes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
She's original, never trying to fit in
She's got a way to always go against the grain
Oh, yeah
Someday they'll see how beautiful she really is
I know that last will be the first
The tables gonna turn 'cause
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she fakes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Maybe she'll be in a movie
Maybe she'll be in a song, yeah
Better pay her some attention
Before she's gone
She's an underdog, yeah
She means the world to me, yeah
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Everyone sees her but nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow for a better tomorrow
She hates it but she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
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/
