Listening to the lyrics now the song definitely has a touch of a sleazy Pretty Woman rescue story thing going on.
The song is about his fixation with a lady he’s seen on the road while cruising in his car. He talks of “making a deal” with her at the roadside, and her being like Cinderella (so him Prince Charming) with connotations of him saving her a life of servitude.
Combine that with the whole song is purely about sex, sex in cars and notably not romantic love “I’ll be your nonstop lover”, and it’s reasonable to suggest the song tells a story of a man with long standing but as yet unrealized fantasies about sex with prostitutes, and his obsession with a particular hooker he’s seen while curb crawling.
This song came out 2 years before the Pretty Woman movie, so it’s too much to suggest any connection there, but the imagery the song suggests is definitely in that ball park.
