Border Song
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernard Taupin
Originally performed by: Elton John
Covered by various other artists



Holy Moses, I have been removed
I have seen the spectre, 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
