Well, you must be a girl with shoes like that
She said, "You know me well"
I've seen you and little Steven and Joanne
Around the back of my hotel, oh yeah
Someone said you was askin' after me
But I know you best as a blagger
I said, "Tell me your name, is it sweet?"
She said, "My boy, it's Dagger", oh yeah
Woo

I was good, she was hot
Stealin' everything she got
I was bold, she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear, thank you, dear
Bring your sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it

Do-do-do, do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Well, you must be a boy with bones like that
She said, "You got me wrong"
I would've sold 'em to you if I could've
Just to've kept the last of my clothes on, oh yeah
Call me up, take me down with you when you go
I could be your regular belle
And I shall dance for little Steven and Joanne
Around the back of my hotel, oh yeah
Woo

I was good, she was hot
Stealin' everything she got
I was bold, she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear, thank you, dear
Bring your sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it

Chelsea, Chelsea, I believe
That when you're dancin' slowly, suckin', your sleeve
The boys get lonely after you leave
It's one for the Dagger and another for the one you believe
Chelsea, I believe
That when you're dancin' slowly, suckin', your sleeve
The boys get lonely after you leave
It's one for the Dagger, another for the one you believe
The one you believe
Oh, no, no, no, no

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do

    It definitely seems like a song about a prostitute. Burlesque dancers in videos are "code" for more naughty stuff.

    Oh, and it's not "Blagger" - I'm fairly certain it's "Blackguard", which is pronounced "Blagger" in England.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/
