What Good Am I ? Lyrics - Oh Mercy - Bob Dylan

What good am I if I'm like all the rest, 

If I just turned away, when I see how you're dressed, 

If I shut myself off so I can't hear you cry, 

What good am I? 

What good am I if I know and don't do, 

If I see and don't say, if I look right through you, 

If I turn a deaf ear to the thunderin' sky, 

What good am I? 

What good am I while you softly weep 

And I hear in my head what you say in your sleep, 

And I freeze in the moment like the rest who don't try, 

What good am I? 

What good am I then to others and me 

If I've had every chance and yet still fail to see 

Bridge: If my hands tied must I not wonder within 

Who tied them and why and where must I have been

What good am I if I say foolish things 

And I laugh in the face of what sorrow brings 

And I just turn my back while you silently die, 

What good am I?
