The road is long, with many a winding 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 bare, 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, it doesn't weigh me down at all    He ain't heavy - he's my brother    He ain't heavy - he's my brother, he's my brother, he's my brother
