The Mountain Goats
Going to Maryland
[Verse 1]
The water's real cool and the water's real sweet
Here's hoping that no points repeat
Because I bet against the chances that you'd ever be mine
Laid everything down on the don't pass line
[Chorus]
And it's a stupid trick of fortune anyway
But the lights are bright tonight
And your eyes shine tonight on Chesapeake Bay
[Verse 2]
Walk through the water and our feet get wet
And on the dark-ended water, I see your silhouette
Five dollars says that it's gone in a minute
Five dollars says that your heart goes with it
[Chorus]
It's a stupid trick of fortune anyway
But the lights are bright tonight
And your eyes shine tonight on Chesapeake Bay
