Chorus: Well there were four saints in a boat, a boat, They were really just men like you and me, But they got a little boat and went to sea To sail to the Marshall Islands. It wasn't a liner or a man of war, It hardly had room enough for four, It never had been to sea before, But the saints were bound to go, For the people had begged and the people had prayed That the test of the bombs should never be made, But nobody listened to what they said, Tho they spoke with a fervent "No!" (Chorus) So the four men knew that they had to go Where the terrible bomb was set to blow, And put their lives on a single throw To halt the deadly hand, And many who heard of the trip took heed, And brought them the things that they might need, And wish them well and prayed good speed As they knelt upon the sand. (Chorus) Well, the skipper was Albert Bigelow, Bill Huntington was the mate, we know, And the crew, who never were long below, Were Sherwood and Willoughby, And some were Quakers, and all were men Who stood by the word of William Penn, Who had lived in peace with the Indian, Saying, "Love can make us free." (Chorus) When they had sailed for a week or more A storm came up with a mighty roar, And drove the little boat back to shore, And the people mourned the day. But they mended the hull and fixed the lights, And the Golden Rule was put to rights:
