I was a fighter always looking for trouble
And my life was so empty, there was nothing left to live for
But then it happened one night as I got into a fight
I could hear someone saying as though he was prayingTreat him well, he is your brother
You might need his help one day
We depend on one another
Love him that's the only way
On the road, on the road that we're going
We all need, we all need words of comfort and compassion
Treat him well, he is your brother
Love him that's the only wayI was a woman never thinking of others
And my life was so lonely, didn't care for anybody
But then I happened to meet a begging man in the street
As I turned down his praying I heard someone sayingTreat him well, he is your brother, brother
You might need his help one day, he's your brother
We depend on one another, brother
Love him that's the only way
On the road, on the road that we're going, that we're going
We all need, we all need words of comfort and compassion
Treat him well, he is your brother, brother
Love him that's the only way
