Lyrics

The road is long [Andy Brown]
With many a winding turn [Andy Brown]
That leads us to who [Gerry Marsden]
Who knows where, who knows where [Paul Heaton]

But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him [John Tilbrook]
He ain't heavy [John Power]
He's my brother [Robbie Williams]

So on we go [John Power]
His welfare is my concern [Melanie Chisholm]
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there [Robbie Williams]
For I know [Rebecca Fergusson]
He would not encumber me [Holly Johnson]
He ain't heavy [Holly Johnson]
He's my brother [Rebecca Fergusson]

If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness [Beverly Knight]
That everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness [Paloma Faith]
Of love for one another [Eliza Doolittle]

It's a long long road [Dave McCabe]
From which there is no return [Peter Hooton]
While we're on our way [Ren Harvieu]
To there, why not share [John McClure]
And the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all [Paul McCartney]
Cause he ain't heavy [Paul McCartney]
He ain't heavy [Shane McGowan]
He's my brother [Shane McGowan]

He's my brother, he's my brother, he's my brother [Chorus]
He ain't heavy, he's my brother [Chorus]
He ain't heavy, he's my brother [Chorus]
He ain't heavy, he's my brother [Chorus]
