It Ain't Heavy, It's My Burden

(with apologies to:B. Scott, B. Russell and The Hollies for:
He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother)

Words in [ ] have been substituted.

 

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 [it]

[It] ain't heavy, [it's] my [burden]

 

So on we go

[It's] welfare is of my concern

No burden is [it] to bear

[I'll] get there

For I know

[God] would not encumber me

[It] ain't heavy, [it's] my [burden]

 

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

[It] ain't heavy, [it's] my [burden]

 

[It's] my [burden]

[It] ain't heavy, [it's] my [burden]...

 

(Original lyrics from: "David Hayman"
and Top 100 Billboard Hits of 1970 )
