|
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... |
