Southern American slang for “having sex” that likely came from pig and swine farmers who absolutely correctly concluded that when they’re pigs were “gettin’ it on” they were making more of themselves, therefore more “bacon.”

It stuck in the language because of its alliteration: MAYkin BAYkin.

I don’t know how credible the original top answer is, but they’re wrong about one thing: there is no alliteration in “makin baykin.” Alliteration means that the words begin with the same letter. What they meant to say is that the words rhyme. How someone could make such an obvious mistake is beyond me.

The Bible has had it right for millenniums. “A live dog is better off than a dead lion. For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten.” (Ecclesiastes 9:4, 5) Does that mean there is absolutely no hope for the dead? Jesus Christ preach about resurrection to life on a restored paradise earth. His Jewish follower Martha, whose brother, Lazarus, had just died, believed in the resurrection, for she said of Lazarus: “I know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.” (John 11:24) To this, Jesus answered: “I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life; and everyone that is living and exercises faith in me will never die at all. Do you believe this?” (John 11:25, 26) Earlier, he had said: “Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.” John 5:28, 29; Luke 23:43. As you can see there will be a resurrection of both the righteous. and the unrighteous. Please do further research in you Bible to get a better understanding.
