Chesapeake Bay Afternoon

CHESAPEAKE BAY AFTERNOON
We'd made our plans to be at play
down Anne Arundel way
just boating, my dear love and me
and happy on the bay.

The wind came whipping from the shore
and blowed to Baltimore
it filled our sail full as could be
that's what a wind is for!

The sun danced in the ocean spray
and took all care away
my love was there beside of me
and made my heart to sing all day.

We put in to Patapsco's shore
dined on crabcakes galore
before our dreams put out to sea
and left us bound for Baltimore.
