Sacred Ground

We got married in high school

Had a baby when we turned eighteen

I bagged groceries in the daytime

At night I learned to fix TV's

When you come by the things the hard way

Well, you learn how to hold on tight

So don't think you can waltz in here

And take her without a fight

This ain't just some neon love come lately

It's a precious thing you don't know nothing about

We were joined in the eyes of the lord, in the eyes

Of our hometown, why don't you leave her alone

You're treadin' on sacred ground

Guess I took for granted

She would never look at someone else

Now I got some patching up to do

Oh and I don't need your help

I know you're the leavin' kind

Well, I sure hope you will

Before she goes and burns those bridges

That took so long to build

Oh, this ain't just some neon love come lately

It's a precious thing you don't know nothing about

We were joined in the eyes of the lord, in the eyes

Of our hometown, why don't you leave her alone

You're treadin' on sacred ground

Go on and leave her alone

Why don't you leave her alone

Go on and leave her alone

You're treadin' on sacred ground
