Usa For Africa - Good for Nothing lyrics

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, aah All the good that I did was for nothing Why don't I just let it be? I fought for two young lovers New York artists they were on the run Got them out to California One was gifted and the other was fun Merchants will always be merchants, of course But an artist's is a fragile life And it's something I have always believed The memory cuts like a knife All the good that I did was for nothing, aah All the good that I did was for nothing, aah 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, aah All the good that I did All the good that I did was for nothing All the good I did All the good I did All the good I did was for nothing
