Story Behind The Song
This is a story about a somewhat wild girl, who ran around kissing other guys and getting into fights, and getting into trouble. She lays that down when she realizes she really wants to be with this man.

Lyrics
I've not been getting into trouble. I've not been fighting any girls. I've not been kissin' any boys no Lord, I've been good.
I've not been eating any apples. I've not been stealing any ribs. The Eve in me has finally been put to sleep and I'm ready to be a good woman now.
So ask me again. Ask me where I want to be. Ask me "Do you want to be with me?" And I'll say... mmmmmmm.
I've not been painting into corners. I've not been painting the towns. I've been down and I've prayed like hell or Heaven to save me. Save me
I've been crossing all my T's. And I've been dotting all my i's. I've been doing it to do right by you, and be right by you.
So ask me again. Ask me where I want to be. Ask me "Do you want to be with me?" And I'll say... mmmmmmm.
