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 better 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 leanin’ at all,
I'm leaning with sadness
That everyone's heart
isn't filled with the gladness 
and 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, he ain't heavy
He's my brother.
