[Spoken Word Intro]
No, we're not

[Verse 1]
She hit town like a rose in bloom
Smellin' sweet, said, sweet perfume
The color faded and the petals died
Down in the city, no one cried

[Pre-Chorus]
In the streets, the garbage lies
Protected by a million flies
Roaches so big, you know that they got bones
They moved in and made a tenement home

[Chorus]
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I'm not a nice boy

[Verse 2]
Sweet sixteen, she was fresh and clean
Wanted so bad to be part of the scene
Took the man, then she did the smack
Paid the price layin' flat on her back
[Pre-Chorus]
Wanted bad to please the boys
They ended up bein' just a toy
Played so hard, burned her life away
Lies were told and no promises made

[Chorus]
You know nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I'm not a nice boy and I never was

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Young and fresh when she hit town
Hot for kicks just to get her ass around
Now she lays in a filthy room
Kills the pain with a flick and a spoon

[Pre-Chorus]
In the streets, the garbage lies
Protected by a million flies
Roaches so big, you know that they got bones
Moved in and made a tenement home

[Chorus]
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys, they never play rock and roll
[Bridge]
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no baby
Nice boys never play rock and roll
I bet your mama said
"Nice boys don't play rock and roll"

[Outro]
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys!
