The road is long with many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where, who knows when
But Im strong--strong enough to carry him
He aint heavy, hes my brother
So on we go--his welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bear--well get there
For I know he would not encumber me
He aint heavy, hes my brother
If Im laden at all--Im laden with sadness
That everyones heart isnt filled
with the gladness of love for one another
Its a long, long road from which there is no return
While were on our way to there
Why not share?
And the load--it doesnt weigh me down at all
He aint heavy, hes my brother
He aint heavy, hes my brother
He aint heavy. Hes my brother
