Rhett & Link - I Wanna Be Your Maine Man Lyrics






I come from a long line of lighthouse keepers
It's bright but very lonely inside
After four straight days awake
I begin to hallucinate
I see you feeding me blueberry pie

I'm a lumberjack
But you already knew that
From when you first saw my chiseled physique
Though I can fell a tall pine
Without batting an eye
I got a soft spot for baby trees

I keep a live lobster inside of my shirt
I can tame any creature of the sea
You make my temperature rise
And it's no surprise
I'm gonna steam it with my body heat

You may have heard that the leading cause of death in Maine
Is moose on the highway
But when riding with me
You can be worry free
I bathe in bear pee
And it keeps them at bay

(It keeps them at bay, baby.)
(Yeah, but you smell like bear pee.)

I wanna be your Maine man
Let me be your Maine man
Don't let him be your Maine man
I'm gonna be her Maine man

Girl, I can build you a cabin in a month
I can do it all by myself
But the truth is it'll take at least six months
And he'll make you and his cousin Glenn help
But I'll take you on a romantic cruise, ah
In my arctic exploration schooner
That's just what he wrote
On the side of his paddleboat
Don't go anywhere alone with this loser

Baby, don't listen to him
He didn't move to Maine until he was ten
But I know so much about Maine
I got Maine facts all up in my brain

Well what's the state fish?
The landlocked salmon
The state bird?
Black capped chickadee
The state fossil?
Pertica quadrifaria
The state insect?
European honeybee
The state gemstone?
Tourmaline
State herb?
Wintergreen
And the state cat is the Maine coon
The state animal is moose
The state mammal is moose
And the state girl of Maine is you

I wanna be your Maine man
Let me be your Maine man
I'm gonna be your Maine man
No, I wanna be your Maine man

I've been living in Maine
I've been working in Maine
I've got some cousins in Maine
I've been buying groceries in Maine
Been paying my taxes in Maine
I've been supporting the economy in Maine
And I'd like to get the child tax credit in Maine
But I'm gonna need some help with that girl

I wanna be your Maine man

  18. T.... ....

    Before Florida man, there was Maine man.

  19. A.... ....

    This is definitely one of the best videos on the Rhett and Link youtube channel.

  20. p.... ....

    Stephen King might have a problem with this. "I'M the Maine man! All my books are set there!"

  21. H.... P....

    I’m pretty sure that the shots down by the water was filmed in harpswell

  22. Z.... B....

    We should make a petition so that Stephen king has to sing this song

  23. T.... V....

    Still one of my favorite videos from Rhett and Link. As a man from Maine I can confirm at least 75% of the lyrics haha

  29. I.... R....

    I’m a Mainer Man! 😄

  30. N.... C....

    Are you actually from Maine though??

    N.... C....

    No.. they're from North Carolina. They wrote this as a pun. "Maine" Man, instead of "Your Main Man". (As in one and only)

    This was a series where they went around the US making songs and commercials for (almost) every state, sponsored by Alka-Seltzer.

  31. P.... h....

    i live in Newfoundland from what it seems they're the exact same just Maine is in America and Newfoundland is in Canada

    Mainiacs.

  41. U.... P....

    I live in Maine and this is 100% accurate!

  42. A.... R....

    If a song in 2019 had this name it’d be so inappropriate

  56. t.... o....

    Wow ten years Link hasn't changed at all

  57. T.... i....

    I'm watching this in Maine on a trip. crossing it off my bucketlist.

  58. t.... p....

    I haven't heard them say. Nor anyone else. I've always wondered why they made this song. I love it though. I been watching them since the beggining lol they surprise me every time

    t.... p....

    if you had been watching since the beginning you would know they made this song as part of their great american road trip series in 2008

  59. A.... ....

    Video got more views than people in Maine.

  60. P.... T....

    This song has around one thousand more views than there are citizens of Maine.

  61. S.... A....

    Im still here 9 years later

  62. X.... ....

    Anyone else born and raised in maine

  63. a.... ....

  65. K.... C....

    Look at the baby faces ☺☺

  66. H.... ....

    Thank you! I live in Maine and I was blown away by how true and funny this song is!

  67. K.... W....

    I'm so glad Rhett had the axe and not link

  68. M.... R....

    I live in Maine.......

  69. H.... ....

    How did this song come about? Firs of all, its hilarious!! I just wanted to find out what connection to Maine these guys have? What made you come up with the idea for the song? Also, how did you happen to choose Maine of all the states??

    H.... ....

    Hawk-and-trowel this is apart of their American road trip so they went to many places and this happend to be one

  70. F.... D....

    Link looks genuinely sad at 2:02 ;-; I'll let you be my Maine man

  71. R.... R....

    I'm more into lighthouses, not trees, sorry Rhett!!!

  72. J.... P....

    But why is 2:53 so beautiful though

  73. B.... ....

    Damn...
    the nostalgia

  74. T.... D....

    I was not even born when this was made

  75. J.... ....

    here in 2018.

  76. M.... H....

    ywep its ogt there is the ugly and in perkins cove

  77. M.... H....

    this has to be shot around Ogunquit it all looks like places I know

  78. A.... �....

    2018. Also I like how this is so accurate to Maine. I love you guys. ♥️♥️♥️

  79. A.... G....

    Woah woah woahhhhhh! Maine is not the pine state! North Carolina is!

  80. K.... ....

    I cant stop listening to this song! <3

  81. A.... ....

    I really miss their old sketches and music videos. I love GMM, but I really miss this stuff.

  82. M.... ....

    My favorite YouTube channels singing about my favorite state! Crazy how far they’ve come and how long they’ve been doing this haha

  83. M.... H....

    Still the best song that's ever been made, what a masterpiece.

  84. L.... S....

    at 0:59 if you look closely the lobster gets caught on link's shirt

    L.... S....

    actually a little later but start there and you'll be fine

  85. _.... ....

    If u scroll really far in the comments half of them are “oh I live in Maine lol” but this video has more views than Maine’s population

  86. R.... ....

    Who’s watching in 2017/2018

  87. H.... J....

    Rhett looks so young!

  88. A.... H....

    This is kind of offending we are normal people too ya know

    A.... H....

    It is kind of cool with the facts tho

  89. S.... K....

    I used to live there in Maine, so I find this hilarious.

  90. G.... ....

    They missed out one more important fact. Pretty much everything Stephen King wrote sets in Maine.

  91. J.... F....

    As a person from Maine and I can say that this is 100% percent accurate

  92. m.... s....

    Living in Maine makes this song much better.

  93. C.... M....

    LOL IM FROM MAINE

  94. m.... ....

    if i was a female i would go on dat paddle boat

  95. C.... g....

    I APPLAUD YOU WE MAINERS (that’s what we’re called lol) DON’T GET ANY RECOGNITION

  96. C.... g....

    As a Maine resident all my life, I have mixed feelings.




    you also forgot to add the snow.

  97. 1.... ....

    not even a ahccent was heard. dissahpointed
