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
