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
