THE HOLLIES( W, Mikael Rickfors) HE AINT HEAVY, HES MY BROTHER( LYRICS)
After the 1971 album Distant Light, lead singer Allan Clarke left the group to pursue a solo career(only to return again in 1973). Until 1973, Allan was replaced by Swedish singer Mikael Rickfors. LYRICS: 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 the 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 s my brother He ain t heavy, he s my brother Songwriters: BOB RUSSELL, BOBBY SCOTT
