When I think about it, the meaning seems quite obvious to me. Many people here seem to get distracted by terms like "all God's children" and start to wonder if there was a religious meaning. But that means nothing more than "people" with a cynical undertone that is present in the whole song - and that first line is also the title of a book about civil rights, if I remember correctly.
Well, I think it's about a one night stand the singer had with a girl, maybe while being a bit tipsy. While she didn't regret it and doesn't care what people might say, she makes it very clear to the girl that there won't be a relationship.
