Here I come, I'm on a run
Who wants to fight temptation that's no fun
C'mon and play the games, don't you feel no shame
That's what Eve said to Adam before she came

[Chorus]
You can smile now cry later on
You know that it might be wrong
But it feels so good, like you know it would

There's damnation and disgrace, and guilt rears its ugly face
Yet you beg for more, just a little more
Stand in line, don't you lose your mind
Try like me to seek your pleasure three at a time
There's souls for sale, your gonna burn in Hell
And if tomorrow never comes, its just as well

[Chorus]

Feel the pain! I feel it too
Have your hedonistic ways got the best of you
Play the games, don't feel no shame
That's what Eve said to Adam before she came

[Chorus]

    mike ness is a really good writer, and also is very intellegent. as shown in the song, he realizes that you must have some discipline in your life. i think it took him a long to learn this lesson though..

    Good things can be done with a self-destructive edge. Sex, drugs, alcohol... some people do it to have fun, and some people just wanna get fucked up and die. I think that's what this song's about. We're all gonna die anyway, may as well go get fucked up and die, no matter who it hurts. But as the first song on this album says, aint nothing in this world for free... and you cant really do some things guilt-free, and you end up hating yourself for it even more.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

Just A Little Lovin'
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/
