Olivia Newton-John - He Ain't Heavy...He's My Brother lyrics

(Bob Russell/Bobby Scott)

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 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--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 ain't heavy. He's my brother
