That lyric is probably why Bitter Wine wasn't on the US release. It would have warranted a parental advisory sticker. It's "creaky" old bed.

It's
"You were giving me head on that creaky old bed
At the old Duval Motel."

Well, maybe that's why it was on These Days.

why is that un-jovish?

BJ lyrics are full of sexual content

Agreed, though not as blunt as Bitter Wine.

It's one of my favorite songs - it has something to do with the melody, I just love it.
I guess it never struck me as being un-jovi like.

The term "giving head" refers to a person that is giving someone else oral sex. That is what makes it sexual.
