Border Song

Song byElton John
in AlbumElton John

Holy Moses I have been removed

I have seen the specter he has been here too

Distant cousin from down the line

Brand of people who ain't my kind

Holy Moses I have been removed

Holy Moses I have been deceived

Now the wind has changed direction and I'll have to leave

Won't you please excuse my frankness but it's not my cup of tea

Holy Moses I have been deceived

I'm going back to the border

Where my affairs, my affairs ain't abused

I can't take any more bad water

I've been poisoned from my head down to my shoes

Holy Moses I have been deceived

Holy Moses let us live in peace

Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease

There's a man over there what's his color I don't care

He's my brother let us live in peace

He's my brother let us live in peace

He's my brother let us live in peace
