- Comment: Expansion made excluding the lyrics
5x expanded by The C of E (talk). Self-nominated at 10:32, 4 June 2021 (UTC).
Approved - article looks fine. I've linked Maryland, My Maryland in the hook. File looks to be appropriately-licensed. Ideally we'd have a version with lyrics, but that's not necessary. Elli (talk | contribs) 06:38, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
