The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Honey roll over and lettuce on top
Strap you to the bed and make you rock
Run it up the flag, send it on home
Push you to the wall and make you moan
She's mine, take what I want
Get what I need, don't take it all
Don't you hide, gonna blow my mind
C'mon taste it honey cause she feel fine
She turn it on, upside down
She turn me on, inside out
She turn it on, all around
She turn me on, she turn it on
Baby bend over, touch your toes
She take over, the bomb explodes
A rockin' rollercoaster, flyin' off the top
Take you high diving, off the long drop
She's mine, take what I want
Get what i need, don't take it all
Don't you hide, gonna blow my mind
C'mon taste it honey cause she feel fine
She turn it on, upside down
She turn me on, inside out
She turn it on, all around
She turn me on, she turn it on
Strap you to the bed and make you rock
Run it up the flag, send it on home
Push you to the wall and make you moan
She's mine, take what I want
Get what I need, don't take it all
Don't you hide, gonna blow my mind
C'mon taste it honey cause she feel fine
She turn it on, upside down
She turn me on, inside out
She turn it on, all around
She turn me on, she turn it on
Baby bend over, touch your toes
She take over, the bomb explodes
A rockin' rollercoaster, flyin' off the top
Take you high diving, off the long drop
She's mine, take what I want
Get what i need, don't take it all
Don't you hide, gonna blow my mind
C'mon taste it honey cause she feel fine
She turn it on, upside down
She turn me on, inside out
She turn it on, all around
She turn me on, she turn it on

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
lol i think this song is hillarious like most songs even though the album is just okay in general AC/DC rocks!
