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 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


Oh 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

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
