And then, after our 30 minutes of fun when the Castaways was done, we would hear…….
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 the tropic island nest.
No phones, no lights, no motor cars, 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.
