Regional, mostly the southeast.  I can't find a video but some of the 
blues songs from the '30s were raunchy with a lot of double entendres and 
the line about keeping you skilled good and greasy shows up frequently.

Lucille Bogan 'Till the cows come home'    NSFW

No idea why the photo is Mississippi John Hurt.

That's Hurt doing 'Candy Man'. It's not the Sammy Davis Jr. version

Another regionalism -- if a man says he's looking for some cock, he's not
