The road is long,

r

The road is long, with many of winding turns

That lead us to (who knows) where, who knows where?

But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him - yeah

He ain't heavy - he's my brother

So long we go, his welfare is my concern

no burden is he to bear, we'll get there

But I know he would not encumber me

He ain't heavy - he's my brother

If I'm leaving at all, if I'm leaving 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 long doesn't way me down at all

He ain't heavy - he's my brother

He's my brother - he ain't heavy - he's my brother
