I'm a young guy, so maybe the slang use of the word "ball" (other than in reference to testicles) is before my time, or maybe it's just not used in my area. But I'm wondering what it means in the context of Hey Hey What Can I Do?, "I got a woman, wanna ball all day". Given the context of the song I've been assuming it means sex, but I dunno. That's why I'm asking!
Wow, great replies all. I always love hearing stories about how music touches people, because music is such an integral part of my life. We all have different experiences with the same music, so it's almost like looking at the same thing from different vantage points.

Don't get me wrong, I love some songs from HotH, but overall it's my least favorite. I love Over the Hills~, D'Yer Mak'er, Dancing Days, and The Ocean. The rest of the songs are ok, but HotH is really the only Zep album I skip songs on.
I've been a Zeppelin fan for about 4 years now, and I've recently finished obtaining all of their albums. There isn't a song I don't like. However, I feel somewhat odd, because Houses of the Holy is my least favorite album. I even like CODA more, and I know a lot of people view CODA as an album most people buy just to have a complete collection. I'm just wondering if anyone else feels the same way about HotH and CODA?
