This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I'm tryin' a climb a stairways to heaven like led zeppelin
Find that polished treasure like Eddie Laverde
I do my dirt so my kids see heaven on earth
But the pain on my heart weighs heavy it hurt
Hope you see my good intentions for whatever its worth
No self convictions when I mention my intentions in verse
Like a preacher or a deacon when he speakin' in church
Know its a lesson that I'm teachin' if you seekin' my verse
Like the shocker the hour be a grievous thing
Like the droppin' of them towers man its plain to see
That them cowards cant sing a song that'll lead us in?
They'd rather march and hold hands like M-L-K
The nigga in me like Malcolm little said 'all means necessary'
So by all means I'm armed and my weapons ready
I got my lessons ready
Hopin' I learned em before I'm laid to rest and buried
Have mercy on me.
Please have mercy on me
Please have mercy on me
Pressure bust pipes
Pressure can also make a diamond
Pressure can bust a man wrestlin' wit his conscience
His self accusin' spirit of his past
(but our lord knows mercy is greater than his wrath)
So in that, I not only pray for me, I pray for he. my dead brother Robert
Help him wit his problems
And the bumps and grinds
And the evil things and thoughts that run through his mind
Take a hand on my sister j blige
As I listen to her life go down watchin her life spin round
On them records
Every track she sing in prayer
Give her no drama let her rainy days be clear
Receivin' signs from Osama that the days is near
When babies is baby mommas man them days is here
It means that them days is now
I pray that the lord have mercy when my day come round
Please have mercy on me
Please have mercy on me
We need your mercy (lord I need)
I need your mercy (Have mercy on me)
Have mercy on my soul(for my soul)
On my soul (for my soul)
For my soul

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/
