The road is long, with many of winding turns That lead us to (who knows) where, who knows where? But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him - yeah He ain't heavy - he's my brother So long we go, his welfare is my concern No burden is he to bear, we'll get there But I know he would not encumber me He ain't heavy - he's my brother If I'm leaving at all, if I'm leaving 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 way me down at all He ain't heavy - he's my brother He's my brother - he ain't heavy - he's my brother ...
