Everybody calls me the nice guy
But all of my soft-hearted days are the past
I'm never ever gonna be a nice guy
I've learned that nice guys always finish last

Once I loved a girl more than words can ever say
I found her in the arms of my best friend
I didn't fight for her, I just watched him walk away
I never saw either one again

Everybody calls me the nice guy
But all of my soft-hearted days are the past
I'm never ever gonna be a nice guy
I've learned that nice guys always finish last

Every girl I loved took advantage of me
I had a heart as good as gold
I was kind to them, but they all rewarded me
By leaving me standing in the cold

Everybody calls me the nice guy
But all of my soft-hearted days are the past
I'm never ever gonna be a nice guy
I've learned that nice guys always finish last
Nice guy, nice guy
