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
For he ain't heavy, he's my brother

So on we go
His welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there

For I know
He would not encumber me
For he ain't heavy, he's my brother

'Cause he ain't heavy, 'cause he's my brother
Just he ain't heavy, yeah, yeah, 'cause he's my brother
Don't you know, don't you know
He ain't heavy, 'cause he's my brother, yeah
