Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip
That started from this tropic port aboard this tiny ship
The mate was a mighty sailing man, the skipper brave and sure
Five passengers set sail that day for a three hour tour, a three hour tour
The weather started getting rough, the tiny shipped was tossed
If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the Minnow would be lost, the Minnow would be lost
The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted desert Isle
With Gilligan, the skipper too
The millionaire and his wife
The movie star
The professor and Mary Ann
Here, on Gilligan's Isle
This is the tale of our castaways, they're here for a long long time
They'll have to make the best of things, it an uphill climb
The first mate and the skipper too, will do their very best
To make the others comfortable in the tropic island nest
No phone, no light, no motor car, not a single luxury
Like Robinson Caruso, It's primitive as can be
So join us here each week my friends, your sure to get a smile
From seven stranded castaways, here on Gilligan's Isle
