Lyrics of The Border Song - Live At The Royal Festival Hall by Elton John
verse
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
verse
Holy Moses, I have been deceived
Now the wind has changed direction, I think 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
verse
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
verse
Holy Moses, I have been deceived
Holy Moses, I said, "Let us all live in peace"
Let us find a way to make Jamaica hatred cease
There's a man over there, what's his color I don't care
outro
He's my brother, let us live in peace
He's my brother, let us live in peace
He's my brother, I said, "Let us all"
I said, "Let us all live in peace"
Writer(s): Bernie Taupin, Elton John
