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 our 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 ain't heavy, he's my brother

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 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 our 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 ain't heavy, he's my brother.
