The only thing I know about the Maryland state song is that they play it at the Preakness
every year... when I googled the words, I was surprised to see how bloody the song is:

"The despot's heel is on thy shore, Maryland!
His torch is at thy temple door, Maryland!
Avenge the patriotic gore, that flecked the streets of Baltimore,
And be the battle queen of yore, Maryland! My Maryland."
