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   In the streets, the garbage lies   Protected by a million flies   The roaches so big   You know that they got bones   They 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 burned her life away   Lies were told 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 around   But now she lays in a filthy room   She kills the pain with   A flick and a spoon   And 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   No,no,no,no,no,no,no,no baby   Nice boys don't play rock and roll   Nice boys don't play rock and roll   I bet you mama 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!
