    The song is set to the melody of "Lauriger Horatius" - the same tune "O Tannenbaum" was taken from. The lyrics are from a nine-stanza poem written by James Ryder Randall (1839-1908) in 1861. The state's general assembly adopted "Maryland, My Maryland" as the state song on April 29, 1939.
    The song's words refer to Maryland's history and geography and specifically mention several historical figures of importance to the state. The song calls for Maryland to fight the Union and was used across the South during the Civil War as a battle hymn. It has been called America's "most martial poem".

    I have a great version for the new anthem:
    The greatest crabs are on thy shore,
    Maryland, my Maryland!
    The greatest beaches at thy door,
    Maryland, my Maryland!
    Make the great Old Bay spread some more, from Chesapeake to Baltimore,
    And thus we say to you some more,
    Maryland, my Maryland!

      It is weird, but Maryland wasn't exactly on one side. It was very much split for most of that if I remember correctly (they started talking of going with the north, then the others went south and etc etc.). And that's how the song got those lyrics yet was always seen as a northern state.

    The "despot" in the first verse refers to Abraham Lincoln. This is one of the reasons we need a new state song, or at least new verses.
