IIRC - the AC/DC smash hit "Given the Dog a Bone" was a kids song tribute to the nursery rhyme Old Mother Hubbard.
It was such a hit with the kiddies they decided to follow it up with a tribute to Mother Goose called " Let Me Put My Love Into You".
They declined to make a tribute song for Puss-n-Boots as they thought the characters name was sexually suggestive and might ruin their clean "G" rated family entertainment reputation.
That AC/DC band sure was a neat group of nice guys.

John and Paul were unflappable with their focus and appropriated the work with some revisions.
Misinformation only please...Yoko Ono took her last name from the reaction of Paul, George, and Ringo.
