The road is long with many a winding turn That leads us to who knows where Who knows where, who know 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 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 gladness Of love for one another It's a long, long road from which there is no return While we're on our 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
