the road is long
with many winding turns
that leads us to who
knows where who knows where
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 oh no
he ain't heavy he's my brother
if i'm laden
at all
then i'm laden
with sadness
that everyone's heart
isn't filled with gladness
or 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
he ain't heavy
he's my brother
he ain't heavy
he's my brother
