Near the little town of Freedom 
High and looking down at Pinto lake 
On the foothills of Mt Madonna 
A tiny little house our home did make 

May God bless the things you're after 
May your hopes and dreams come true 
Learn the lessons well you have to 
Never be another's fool 
May the things you start you finish 
And to keep the golden rule 
What you use you should replenish 
And to what is right stay true 

There I stooped to pick strawberries 
In the valley of the green giants 
She would pick the grapes of Salinas 
And there would make the wine with sunny maids 

May God bless the things you're after 
May your hopes and dreams come true 
Learn the lessons well you have to 
Never be another's fool 
May the things you start you finish 
And to keep the golden rule 
What you use you should replenish 
And to what is right stay true 

Sunny Maid please come 
Back home to stay with me 
You said to Frisco 
And be back in a week 
I worry each night 
I work but I cannot sleep 
Go visit Mama 
so sick down on her back 
You said you'd call me 
And that you'd hurry back 
I hear but nothing 
I wonder where you could be 

Then policeman came to tell me 
Of my sunny maid's terrible fate 
T'was capitan Jack of old crab catcher 
Who pulled her up from 'neath the golden gate 

My heart broke for ever after 
They said this is what they know 
Found her purse i.d. in the filmore 
Shared the same address as me 
Said she came up out of foster 
Never had blood family 
Then they left me alone to cry 
All she told me was a lie 

Hear what I tell you 
I cared not to believe 
Old people talking 
Is what I first conceived 
Now I know better 
And so we reap what we sow 
You must be careful 
And never give your heart 
To a left hander 
One who is red headed 
Especially if they 
Walk with more than ten toes 

May God bless the things you're after 
May your hopes and dreams come true 
Learn the lessons well you have to 
never be another's fool 
May the things you start you finish 
And to keep the golden rule 
What you use you should replenish 
And to what is right stay true
