Border Song Lyrics By Elton John

    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
    been poisoned from my head down to my shoes oh
    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 oh
    he’s my brother let us live in peace oh
    he’s my brother let us let us live in peace
