"It's a Maryland Thing, you Wouldn't Understand"

It’s A Maryland Thing, You Wouldn’t Understand
J.Charles/S.Barrier

If you’ve never seen an Atlantic sunrise
then the sunset over Isle of White
Never crossed the Bay Bridge
With the windows down, salt air blowing all around
Never heard of Assawoman or Susquehanna
Got a Maryland tattoo with matching pajamas
Let me shed a little light so you can recognize
Why us free state folks have so much pride

It’s A Maryland Thing
You wouldn’t understand
We can talk about it over Natty Boh cans
Picking crabs on the porch on a hot summer night
Tucked underneath that Mason Dixon line
It’s A Maryland Thing, Hell yeah You just wouldnt’ understand
It’s A Maryland Thing, Hell yeah

Catch the Ravens at the Bank or the Birds in the Yard -while
ole Fort McHenry’s still standing guard
Watch an Osprey fly across an Assateague sky
With wild ponies shaking off Horseflies
Sail my boat up the chesapeake Bay
Salute our midshipmen along the way
When the work’s all done and the weekend comes
You Dam right we going down the ocean Hooooooooon

Yeah It’s A Maryland Thing
You wouldn’t understand
We can talk about it where the waves meet the sand
Crushing crushes on the dock at a Harbor side bar
Day drinking in the sun or underneath the stars
It’s A Maryland Thing, Hell Yeah You Just wouldn't Understand
It’s A Maryland Thing, hell yeah

ooooo ooooooo
Ooooo oooooo

Bridge
We put our hands on our hearts and we stand up tall shouting
Oooooo
say does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave
Son

It's a Md thing
You Wouldnt Understand
But Francis Scott Key was a Frederick Man
You can find us wherever you roam
We’ll be Wearing our flag to make sure you know

It’s A Maryland Thing, oh yeah
We put Old Bay on Everything
It’s A Maryland Thing,
Crabcakes and football its what we do
It’s A Maryland Thing
Get you some scrapple and some pit beef
It’s A Maryland Thing, Hell yeah
Berger cookies & Snow Cones)
It’s A Maryland Thing, hell yeah
Fishers Popcorn, Thrashers French fries
It’s A Maryland Thing, Hell yeah
I could go on and on forever but you just wouldn't understand
