This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Much has been said of the strumpets of yore
Of wenches and bawdy house queens by the score
But I sing of the baggage that we all adore
The landlord's daughter
Oh, her lips are as rose as her wine is a treat
Her whiskey is good and her finger is neat
And while she is serving her bitter she's sweet
The landlord's daughter
You'll never love another
Although she's not the kind of girl
To take home to your mother
Her ale, it is lively and strong to the taste
It is brewed with discretion and never with haste
You can have all you like if you swear not to waste
The landlord's daughter
And, when her name is mentioned
The parts of every gentleman
Do stand up at attention
Now the ? of the blossom and all of the country
She takes off the garter and ? in town
The dolly who keeps her red heart of renown
But I'll take the landlord's daughter
For nothing so delight so
As the part that lies between
Her left toe, and her right toe
Of wenches and bawdy house queens by the score
But I sing of the baggage that we all adore
The landlord's daughter
Oh, her lips are as rose as her wine is a treat
Her whiskey is good and her finger is neat
And while she is serving her bitter she's sweet
The landlord's daughter
You'll never love another
Although she's not the kind of girl
To take home to your mother
Her ale, it is lively and strong to the taste
It is brewed with discretion and never with haste
You can have all you like if you swear not to waste
The landlord's daughter
And, when her name is mentioned
The parts of every gentleman
Do stand up at attention
Now the ? of the blossom and all of the country
She takes off the garter and ? in town
The dolly who keeps her red heart of renown
But I'll take the landlord's daughter
For nothing so delight so
As the part that lies between
Her left toe, and her right toe

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
