Gilligan's Island

Help, I'm l;ooking for the theme song lyrics for Gilligan's Island.

[Hollow]

It goes like.....

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 ship 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.

[Rhio2k]

There's an alternate version that ends with

With Gilligan
The Skipper, too
The Millionaire and his wife
The movie star
And the rest
Are here on Gilligan's Isle!

best theme song ever!!!!!!

oh, just so you know, the ending of each episode goes:

Now this is the tale of our castaways; their here for a long, long time.
They'll have to make the best of things; it's an up hill climb!
The first mate and his Skipper to will do their very best,
to keep the others comfortable in a tropic island nest.
No phone, no light, no motercars!
Not a single luxery!
Like Robinson Curuseo,
It's primitave as can be!
So join us here next week my friends;
You're sure to get a smile!
For seven stranded castaways,
HERE ON GILLIGAN'S ISLE!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, the early (B&W) episodes lumped the Professor and Mary Ann as "and the rest." How insulting! Mary Ann became one of the most popular characters, especially for the men!
