[Lyric] He Aint Heavy Hes My Brother (David Ruffin & Jimmy Ruffin)

[Verse 1: Jimmy Ruffin]
The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where?
Who knows where? (Who knows where?)

[Chorus: Jimmy Ruffin]
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him (Him, him)
He ain't heavy (He ain't heavy), mmhmm, he's my brother

[Verse 2: David Ruffin]
So on we go (So on we go)
His welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there (We will get there)

[Chorus: David Ruffin]
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy (He ain't heavy), he's my brother
[Bridge: David Ruffin and Jimmy Ruffin]
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

[Verse 3: Jimmy Ruffin]
It's a long, long road (It's a long, long road)
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share? (Why not share?)

[Chorus: Jimmy Ruffin and David Ruffin]
Ah, and the load (And the load)
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy (He ain't heavy), oh, he's my brother, yeah

[Break: Jimmy Ruffin]
Mmm (Doesn't weigh me down)

[Outro: Jimmy Ruffin and David Ruffin]
Oh, want everybody to know my brother David ain't heavy (He ain't heavy)
Oh, I can understand it 'cause Jimmy, you're my brother, oh yeah (He ain't heavy)
Oh, said you're not heavy, no no (He ain't heavy)
No no no, I can understand it 'cause you're my brother (He ain't heavy)
I'm your brother, your brother
Oh, brother
I want you to know, you ain't heavy
