Just a young man
By an old road
By the route he chose

An ancient song
In an old tongue
For this man was sung

Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
It's a heavy load

By a bright stream
Came an old dream
Things are never what they always seem
And so he went on
Travelling on
Now he's a long way from home

Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh heavy load

Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
