This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Way down in the land of sunny Mexico
There's a fellow, I'm sue that you all know
Any time within his trouble there
You bound to hear his cry ringing through the air
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva
One day last May a tourist came to town
And very soon he started hanging 'round
With the Speedy's girl giving her the eye
And suddenly he heard this famous cry
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva
He hit the tourist with the speed of light
And next to no-time he had won the fight
The last words he remembered for his flight
Were: Senor, you're leaving Mexico tonight
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva
So if you ever go to sunny Mexico
Enjoy yourself but be careful how you go
And listen well to everything I say
'Cause I was that tourist there one day last May
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva
There's a fellow, I'm sue that you all know
Any time within his trouble there
You bound to hear his cry ringing through the air
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva
One day last May a tourist came to town
And very soon he started hanging 'round
With the Speedy's girl giving her the eye
And suddenly he heard this famous cry
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva
He hit the tourist with the speed of light
And next to no-time he had won the fight
The last words he remembered for his flight
Were: Senor, you're leaving Mexico tonight
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva
So if you ever go to sunny Mexico
Enjoy yourself but be careful how you go
And listen well to everything I say
'Cause I was that tourist there one day last May
Andele y'arriva
Andele y'arriva
In Spanish this means I'm here
Andele, andele, andele y'arriva

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/
