Also the daddy of them all, Ice Cream Man.
Keep On Churnin’–Wynonie Harris
Beatles - I’ll Get You (in the end)
Oh, yeah!
(Actually, never thought of that — ha!)
“Day Tripper” is, as John said in an interview, about weekend hippies with white-collar jobs during the week, and the “trip” can be deemed lysergic, automotive, or just metaphorical.
Whatever that song is that starts off: “You make me commme…” “You make me completely miserable…”
Meri Wilson, Hey Baby I’m Your Telephone Man: Meri Wilson - Telephone Man - YouTube
There was a whole genre of double entendre blues, some more “double” than others.
For example there’s Kitchen Man
And I’m sure anyone who’s struggled with “self-assembly” furniture will agree with this number by Barrelhouse Annie.
One of my favorites songs overall; Deep Purple’s Knocking at Your Back Door. The (not so hidden) meaning just makes it that much better.
Richard and Linda Thompson - Hokey Pokey (The Ice Cream Song)
Fleetwood Mac - Love That Burns
Yeah, creeped me out a little when my son’s School of Rock band played this song.
Just about everything by Roosevelt Sykes, aka “The Honeydripper.” Typical lines: “got a new sexretary. All she needs now is a big dic…tionary, and she’ll be a readin’ and writin’ mother fer you…”
Pretty much everything written by Cole Porter, but the most obvious is Let’s Do It.
That would be, “I’m somewhere making my midnight creep.”

Bessie Smith’s “I Need a Little Sugar in my Bowl”.
Here’s a good list from the Dirty Blues era.
Pretty sure Led Zeppelin’s “Trampled Under Foot” is about fixing a car, right?
Practically anything by AC/DC, except for the few songs they don’t pretend to hide the meaning.
Also, most songs by the greatest AC/DC cover band, Krokus.
Just by listening alone, wouldn’t you say this is AC/DC?
