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!
