@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
The grass looks greener
The money does too
It sure looks easier
For the chosen few
Mama always said
God broke the mold when he made me
And I've spent my whole damn life
Tryin' to fit back in
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I wanna be a straight-shootin, high-falutin'
Rider on the hit parade
It's too hard to live this way
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
If you think I'm brave
You're sadly mistaken
Every fight I've ever fought, rule I've ever broke
Was out of desperation
I'd just as soon to be
Another face in the crowd
Of people who are scared of me
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I wanna be a straight-shootin, high-falutin'
Rider on the hit parade
It's too hard to live this way
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I wanna be a straight-shootin, high-falutin'
Rider on the hit parade
It's too hard to live this way
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
The money does too
It sure looks easier
For the chosen few
Mama always said
God broke the mold when he made me
And I've spent my whole damn life
Tryin' to fit back in
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I wanna be a straight-shootin, high-falutin'
Rider on the hit parade
It's too hard to live this way
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
If you think I'm brave
You're sadly mistaken
Every fight I've ever fought, rule I've ever broke
Was out of desperation
I'd just as soon to be
Another face in the crowd
Of people who are scared of me
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I wanna be a straight-shootin, high-falutin'
Rider on the hit parade
It's too hard to live this way
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I wanna be a straight-shootin, high-falutin'
Rider on the hit parade
It's too hard to live this way
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade
I don't wanna be an outlaw
I don't wanna be a renegade

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/
