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 know a place where we could go outside and have some fun
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
Long time no see
Whatcha been doing?
Is everything alright?
I know you know, that I been cooling
Even though, I been out of sight
This time don't leave me hanging around
I want you to love me down
Just you and me, baby, you just wait
Let's get together for old time's sake
I know a place where we could go outside and have some fun
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
Let's take it slow
Can I have one more chance?
To love you, I know that it will be fine
It seems to me that you don't belong to another
And I know that we were meant to be
You are the only man that I need
Time will tell, you'll see what I mean
Let's have some fun
Do the things that we used to
Oh, let's get together, just me and you
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
I know a place where we could go outside and have some fun
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
I know a place where we could go outside and have some fun
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
Long time no see
Whatcha been doing?
Is everything alright?
I know you know, that I been cooling
Even though, I been out of sight
This time don't leave me hanging around
I want you to love me down
Just you and me, baby, you just wait
Let's get together for old time's sake
I know a place where we could go outside and have some fun
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
Let's take it slow
Can I have one more chance?
To love you, I know that it will be fine
It seems to me that you don't belong to another
And I know that we were meant to be
You are the only man that I need
Time will tell, you'll see what I mean
Let's have some fun
Do the things that we used to
Oh, let's get together, just me and you
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
I know a place where we could go outside and have some fun
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken
I know a place where we could go outside and have some fun
Just you and me, together we are one on one
I know you, you remember when we use to chill back when
Smoking a blunt and sipping on a Heineken

“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
