Does he know? No, no (4x)

You can be a little church mouse
In a box at the church house
If you never make a sound, now
And he never finds out, now

But you couldn't keep a little church mouse
Not with all the money in your purse, now
Not for all the liquor in the church house
Or the pussy keeping watch now

Does he know? No, no (4x)

Does he know he could'a' saved me? (2x)

How can he know and not be crazy? (2x)

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/
