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/
if i were you
you're gonna die tonight
you did something wrong and you know it wasn't right
money means much more to you
feeling you had to screw
the friends you had
the friends you knew
all they were was nice to you
life is such a lonely place
and there's no one you can trust..
because money changes everything
yes, money
money changes everything...
you think you know what your doing
you don't know a thing
and life is such a lonely place
when there's no one you can trust..
now the time has come
for me to go and die
i have to go away
i have to say goodbye
i wish that i could see the day
to see you burn to see the gage
who cares you die in rubble rush
some people turn to ashes and dust
life is such a lonely place
and there's no one i can trust..
cause money
money changes everything
yes, money
money changes everything
we think we know what were doing
we don't know a thing
life is such a lonely place
when there's no one you can trust..
no one to trust..
money... changes everything
money... changes everything
money money money...changes everything
money...changes everything
you're gonna die tonight
you did something wrong and you know it wasn't right
money means much more to you
feeling you had to screw
the friends you had
the friends you knew
all they were was nice to you
life is such a lonely place
and there's no one you can trust..
because money changes everything
yes, money
money changes everything...
you think you know what your doing
you don't know a thing
and life is such a lonely place
when there's no one you can trust..
now the time has come
for me to go and die
i have to go away
i have to say goodbye
i wish that i could see the day
to see you burn to see the gage
who cares you die in rubble rush
some people turn to ashes and dust
life is such a lonely place
and there's no one i can trust..
cause money
money changes everything
yes, money
money changes everything
we think we know what were doing
we don't know a thing
life is such a lonely place
when there's no one you can trust..
no one to trust..
money... changes everything
money... changes everything
money money money...changes everything
money...changes everything
