here on hebgen lake

just sit right back
and you'll hear a tale
a tale of an eventful trip
it started on hebgen lake
aboard a wooden dock
the mates were mighty sailing men
the skipper's boat strong and sure
five passengers set sail that day
for a thirty minute tour
 a thirty minute tour
 the weather started getting rough
the ski/wake surf boat tossed
if not for the courage of  fearless crew
(aunt michelle...just calm down...you can do this)
the boat would be lost
the boat would be lost

the boat set ground on the shore of
this uncharted
jenn's hill
with the michael dude
the skipper too
the unmillionaire and her son
the movie star
(version one)
(version 2)
and

the graduate and eagle scout
here on hebgen lake
so this is the tale of the castaways
that would love to stay for a long, long time
they'll have to make the best of things
it's an uphill climb

the host and hostess
will do their very best
to make the others comfortable
in the cabin and forrest
so join us here each year my friends
you are sure to get a smile
from all the guests and family

*PARODY
*a humorous imitation of something
that falls short of the real thing
in this case "The Gilligan's 
Island" theme song
