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/

I once heard from a friend that song is about sex.
As did I, MegaGirl...and she was one of the least perverted people I know, and even she realized that.
Of course it's about sex.
What do you think, "I wish you were my lollipop" and "Bite me, I'm yours" mean?
Yeah its funny how so many of aquas songs have sexual connatations and that when they were in their prime most of their fans were 12 years old and under and didnt have a clue...
