    Story Behind the Song
    Ocracoke Island National Seashore campground.

    Lyrics
    OCRACOKE MAN 8-01-02 tp©
    Chorus
    ONE WHOLE FIFTEEN MINUTES

    ONE WHOLE TWENTYFIVE MINUTES A DAY
    ONE WHOLE FIFTEEN MINUTES A DAY

    (1)
    IT’S THE NATIONAL SEASHORE PARK CIRCLE

    GATHERED AROUND THE CONCRETE SLIPS

    CEDAR SHAKE ROOF AND AN OUTHOUSE SUNLIGHT

    A MAN IN RUBBER BOOTS KEEPS IT MOPPED UP QUICK

    THE CROWS ARE WAITING TO WORK THE CAMPERS

    TO PICK UP THE TRASH AND ANYTHING LEFT OUT

    PEACHES AND PLUMS CHEWING GUM WRAPPERS
    THE POOP ON THE COOLER’S WHAT THEY’RE LAUGHING ABOUT
    Bridge:
    BIG RAT SNAKE FIVE FOOT LONG

    KEEPS THE BEST SITE VACANT FOR THE RAT SNAKE FANS

    SAND BURRS PRICKLY PEAR AND OUTSIDE FOGGERS
    GUARENTEE A PLACE FOR THE OCRACOKE MAN
    Chorus
    (2)
    YOU GOT YOUR DRAINAGE AND STUMP YOUR CAMPER DUMP STATION

    EVERYTHINGS PAINTED FOREST GREEN AND BROWN

    FIVE HOLES DEDICATED TO ALUMINIUM RECYCLE

    AND ONE TO LET EM KNOW YOU’RE IN WHEN THEY’RE OUT

    THE OCEAN IT GOES ON AND FOREVER

    THE SURF AND CHANGING FIVE TIMES A DAY

    CAMPERS IN THE DUNES, IN THE MEADOW AND THE HEATHER

    FEARFUL HOW THE WATER CAN TAKE IT ALL AWAY

    BRIDGE AND CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL

    ENJOY YOURSELF AND HAVE A FINE VACATION

    RELAX A WHILE NO WORRY BOUT THE RENT

    PARK 101 OCEAN DESALINATION

    WRITE A COUPLE TUNES ABOUT A TIME WELL SPENT

    BRIDGE AND CHORUS
