He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother (B. Russell - B. Scott)
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
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

 

 

Carrie Anne (Clarke / Hicks / Nash)
Hey Carrie Anne, hey Carrie Anne

When we were at school our games were simple
I played a janitor, you played a monitor
Then you played with older boys and prefects
What’s the attraction in what they’re doing

Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play
Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play

You were always something special to me
Quite independent, never caring
You lost you’re charm as you were ageing
Where is your magic disappearing

Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play
Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play

You’re so, so like a woman to me (so like a woman to me)
So, (so), so (so) like a woman to me ( like a woman to me)

Break

Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play
Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play

People live and learn, but you’re still learning
You use my mind and I’ll be your teacher
When the lesson’s over, you’ll be with me
Then I’ll hear the other people saying

Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play
Hey Carrie Anne, what’s your game now, can anybody play

Carrie Anne

On A Carousel (Clarke / Hicks / Nash)
Riding along on a carousel
Trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel
Will I catch up to you

Horses chasing 'cause they're racing
So near yet so far
On a carousel, on a carousel

Nearer, nearer by changing horses
Still so far away
People fighting for their places
Just get in the way

Soon you'll leave and then I'll lose you
Still we're going round
On a carousel, on a carousel

Round and round and round and round and round
And round and round and round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down too

As she leaves she drops the present
That she won before
Pulling ducks out of the water
Got the highest score

Now's my chance and I must take it
A case of do-or-die
On a carousel, on a carousel

Round and round and round and round and round
And round and round and round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down too

Riding along on a carousel
Trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel
Will I catch up to you

Now we take our ride together
No more chasing her
On a carousel, on a carousel

On a carousel, on a carousel
