==================================================

 The Ballad of Gilligan´s Island
 Written by George Wyle and Sherwood Schwartz
 Performed by The Wellington's (season one)
 Performed by The Eligibles (season two)

==================================================

 Opening:
 
 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 sailin' 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, and the rest,
 (the Professor and Mary Ann),
 here on Gilligan's Isle.
 

==================================================

 Closing:
 
 So 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's an uphill climb.
 The first mate and his skipper too,
 will do their very best,
 to make the others comfortable,
 in their tropic island nest.
 No phones, no lights, no motor car,
 not a single luxury.
 Like Robinson Crusoe,
 it's primitive as can be.
 So join us here each week my friend,
 you're sure to get a smile.
 From seven stranded castaways,
 Here on Gilligan's Isle.

==================================================

 Opening Theme:

 In tropical sea is a tropic port,
 Vacation fun is the favorite sport.
 This is the place where the tourists flock,
 Renting the boats at the busy dock.

 Two secretaries from U-S-A,
 Sail on the Minnow this lovely day.
 A high school teacher is next aboard,
 All taking trip that they can not afford.

 The next two people are millionaires,
 They got no worries, they got no cares.
 They climb aboard and they step inside,
 With just enough bags for a six-hour ride.

 Tourists come, tourists go,
 Tourists touring to and fro.

 These five nice tourists, they take this trip,
 Relaxing on deck on this little ship.
 The weather is clear and the sun is hot,
 The weather is clear? I think it is not!

 Tourists come, tourists go,
 Tourists tossing to and fro.

 The captain is brave, he's  Carrrrumba! What a storm!
 The captain is brave, he's a fearless man,
 And Gilligan helps him all that he can.
 The wheel, she break and lose all control,
 S.S. Minnow do the rock-and-roll.

 The sea is now calm and the weather grand,
 Where is the Minnow?  Upon the sand!
 What happen now will bring you a smile,
 The adventures of Gilligan, 
 And the Skipper,  
 And the Millionaire, 
 And Mrs. Millionaire, 
 And the other tourists, 
 On Gilligan's Isle!


 Closing Theme:

 We leave all our friends on this tropic shore,
 Perhaps they will be here forevermore.
 Maybe a rescue will set them free,
 Tune in next week and then you will see.
