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/
Anything we should know about your change? -- I was a prisoner in a factory
I can keep nothing for myself
Missing convenience
Won't remember me at all
And now i'm relying on the well
I kept the questions to a murmur
You had an answer for them all
How am i take it home
How am i get you alone
How am i take you home
How am i get you alone
To remember why
They hung you out to dry
We're all alone
And unaware
You can't say what you want to say
?
I hope that you prepare
For enemies like this
Enemies like this
You keep on waiting
Listen
Turn around
I always say it's gonna change now
Scaring with fire
Despite, we don't go anywhere now
Scaring with fire
Despite, no one goes anywhere now
Can you remember why
They hung us out to dry
We're all alone
Beyond your half
You can't say what you want to say
?
I'll be too prepared
For enemies like this
Enemies like this (x6)

Don't let it go (x8)
You keep on turning around (x2)
