The road is
long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who
knows when
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy,
he's my brother

So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden
is he to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber
me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

If I'm laden at all
I'm laden
with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of
love for one another

It's a long, long road
From which there is no
return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the
load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy, he's my
brother

He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my
brother...
