The road is long, with the many awinding turn 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 encomber 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 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
