Good for Nothing

I helped my good friend's brother Out of trouble when he was in jail I was rushed cause I got lucky Paid his lawyer and I paid his bail Glad to be able just to pay the price The price it took to set him free I never heard a single "thank you" at all You'd think by now I could see All the good that I did was for nothing All the good that I did was for nothing Why don't I just let it be? I'm thankful to young lovers, New York artists they were on the run I got them out to California One was gifted and the other was fun Merchants will always be merchants, of course But a fool and his tears a fragile life And it's something I have always believed Her memory cuts like a knife All the good that I did was for nothing All the good that I did was for nothing All the good that I did, All the good that I did, Why can't I just let it be? All the good that I did was for nothing All the good that I did All the good that I did was for nothing All the good that I did [Repeat: x3] All the good that I did was for nothing
