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/
ooooo (x8)
You know I'm young
I got a lot of passion
Everytime i wake up
Yeah, I'm rockin crazy fashion
When the beat stops for a second
We bring it back in
Cross my path cuz
We on the map baby
Feather my hair and them I'm close like Patrick Swayze
(Ho)
New is for the youth
(Ho)
Searchin for the truth
(Ho)
Fourty hundred thousand
(Ho)
Melleniums in countin
(Ho)
I found the fountain of youth up on the highest mountain
ooooo (x8)
Ho (x3)
I just see the light and I'm travelin
I really can't believe this is happenin
When I look into the future I see the past
But I really never know if it's gunna last
We're on our way to the fountain of our youth
(Ho)
New is for the youth
(Ho)
Searchin for the truth
(Ho)
Fourty hundred thousand
(Ho)
Melleniums in countin
He was staring at the cavern of the evil wizard
All around you the carcases slain ice waters
Knelt the wizard
(typing noises)
Cross my heart and hope to die
Youth is the truth we will survive
Cross my heart and hope to die
Youth is the truth we will survive
Cross my heart and hope to die
Youth is the truth we will survive
In with the new
In with my crew
Out with the old
Listen to the youth
Cuz they ain't listenin to you, Ho!
Money power and respect
You look kind of crazy lately
I though you knew that we're the true blue 80's babys
The times are changin
It's amazin
Follow the trail I'm brazin
I got the youth on my back
Everytime I rap on a track
I ain't got much but I got enough to get it poppin stick
And all you haters go ahead and get up off my dick

Ho (x7)
You know I'm young

Cross my path cuz
We on the map baby
Feather my hair and them I'm close like Patrick Swayze
