She hit town like a rose in bloom

Smellin' sweet, said sweet perfume

The color faded the petals died

Down in the city no one cried

In the streets the garbage lies

Protected by a million flies

The roaches so big you know that they got bones

Moved in and made a tenement home, I said

Nice boys don't play rock and roll

Nice boys don't play rock and roll

I'm not a nice boy!

Sweet sixteen she was fresh and clean

Wanted so bad to be part of the scene

She met the man and she did the smack

Paid the price layin' flat on her back

Wanted so bad just to please the boys

They ended up just being a toy

Played so hard she burned her life away

Lies were told but no promises made

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

Young and fresh when she hit town

Hot for kicks just to get herself around

Now she lays in a filthy room

Kills the pain with a flick and a spoon

In the streets the garbage lies

Protected by a million flies

You know the roaches so big

You know that they got bones

Moved in and made a tenement home

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

Na Na Na Na Na Na, baby

Nice boys don't play rock and roll

Nice boys don't play rock and roll

I'll bet your mamma said, 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
