Somewhere Down In Maryland
Somewhere Down In Maryland

D 4/4 Tony Norwell

Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea -

I met a thousand people there – with feelings just like me.

They all wanted peace down there – they wanted to be free –

Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea.


In the bars and in the cafes – round the harbour – in the streets –

There were all the kinds of people there – you’d think you’d ever meet.

There were princes – there were paupers – ever wanting to be free –

Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea.


Maryland – oh Maryland – so long – so far away –

I loved you so much – I’m going back to see you some old day;

Maryland – oh Maryland – so long - so far away –

As sure as heck – I’m going back – to see you some old day!

Baltimore stood shining, sprawling – round its Harbourplace –
That once was old and wild and hard – now has a postcard face.
And all the while I wondered there – at what they thought of me –
Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea.

In Washington – they washed the town – well it seemed so prime and clean –
The tour bus guide was great to hear and the White House looked so green!
But it wasn’t us who burned it – at least it wasn’t me –
Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea.

In Main Street in Annapolis – where Kunte Kinte once was sold –
With its ancient pubs and houses there – as quaint as they were old.
You could have been in England there – as anywhere could be –
Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea.

I met you there – but sometimes – I wish I never had;
Though I hardly got to know you – you made me feel so glad.
To be down there at that time – as young as I could be –
Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea.

If I ever got a letter – come winging across the sea –
I’d be as sure as I could be then – that you’d remembered me.
But as the weeks and months go by – I see that that won’t be –
Somewhere down in Maryland – so far across the sea.
