He

Oh, the road is long

With many a-winding turn

That leads us to who

Knows where, who knows where

But I'm strong

I'm strong enough to carry him

He ain't heavy

You'll see he's my brother

So on we go

His welfare is my concern

No burden is he to bare

We'll get there

And I know

He would not encumber me

He ain't heavy, no, no

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, oh, why don't we share?

And the load

Lord, the load don't no weigh me down at all

He ain't heavy, no, no

He's my brother

No Lord, he ain't heavy, no, no, no

He's my brother
