Sophie B. Hawkins - The Border Song (Holy Moses) lyrics

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 have to leave

Won't you please excuse my frankness

But it's not my cup of tea

Holy Moses I have been deceived

(Yes I have)

I'm going back to the border where my affairs

Where my affairs ain't abused

I can't take no more bad water

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

Oh, and it hurts so bad

Holy Moses I have been removed

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

Holy Moses let us live in peace

Holy Moses why can't we, why can't we live in peace?

Holy Moses let us live, let us live in peace

Why can't we?

Oh Lord, why can't we live in peace

He's my brother

She's my sister

Let us love each other
