This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
(This is 'The Occidental Saloon' Video Version)
Lay you head
Where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down on the green grass
And remember when you loved me
Now come closer don't be shy
Stand beneath a rainy sky
'Cause the moon, it is over the rise
Picture me as a train rolls by
Clear the thistles and brambles
Oh whistle didn't he ramble
Now there, there is a bubble of me
And its floating in thee
Blue Sky in the shade of me
Things are now made of me
The weather vane will say
Oh, it smells like rain today
Ah 'cause God he took the stars and he tossed 'em
And I cannot tell the birds from the blossoms
Oh you shall never ever be free of me
'Cause he will make a tree outta me
Don't you say good bye to me
please describe the beautiful sky to me
And when the sky falls down
You mark my words, we will all catch mocking birds
Lay you head
Where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down on the green grass
And remember when you loved me
Lay you head
Where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down on the green grass
And remember when you loved me
Now come closer don't be shy
Stand beneath a rainy sky
'Cause the moon, it is over the rise
Picture me as a train rolls by
Clear the thistles and brambles
Oh whistle didn't he ramble
Now there, there is a bubble of me
And its floating in thee
Blue Sky in the shade of me
Things are now made of me
The weather vane will say
Oh, it smells like rain today
Ah 'cause God he took the stars and he tossed 'em
And I cannot tell the birds from the blossoms
Oh you shall never ever be free of me
'Cause he will make a tree outta me
Don't you say good bye to me
please describe the beautiful sky to me
And when the sky falls down
You mark my words, we will all catch mocking birds
Lay you head
Where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down on the green grass
And remember when you loved me

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Just A Little Lovin'

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/

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
