I think also that the interpretation of the song requires that it be taken in its context, where possible. For example, the first movie performance of the song was by Esther Williams and Red Skelton, in Neptune's Daughter,in 1949. I know that in some of her movies Esther is being chased by men, and sometimes her role indicates that she is not really interested but doesn't want to alienate the people who can help her career, as her career as a synchronized swimmer was often the main subject matter of the film.
