The road is long
With
many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows
where
Who knows when
But I'm
strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't
heavy, he's my brother

So on we go
His
welfare is of my concern
No burden 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 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 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...

From: "David Hayman"
