The Border Song (holy Moses) Lyrics - Sophie B. Hawkins

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
