The song's title is a rhyming and unsubtle reference to the male and female genitalia.[2][3] The lyrics pay tribute to "a teenage queen" named Nadine who is "lookin' so clean, especially down in between."[4][5]
As Nugent became active in conservative politics in his later years, the song's sexually explicit content drew attention in news and satire publications.
