Good and bad, it goes around
We make our luck, we lay it out
We run until we are not able

Mother and father, don't be sad
You gave us everything you had
Still we are all unstable 'til the end

I've been falling since you're gone
There is no right or wrong
Got to get myself together

Oh, don't you know that you reap what you sow?
Oh, don't you get you can't run from what you forget?

I'm the one who has told lies
But nothing like your ochre eyes
Cut me open with your razor
So you could sew me up again, I would always be your friend
Then you could be my savior to the end

I've been falling since you're gone
There is no right or wrong
Got to get myself together

Oh, don't you know that you reap what you sow?
Oh, don't you get you can't run from what you forget?

You can't run...
You can't run...

You got to get yourself together

Oh, don't you know that you reap what you sow? (You can't run)
Oh, don't you get you can't run from what you forget? (You can't run)

You can't run, you can't run from what you forget
You can't run

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/
