Intro---        x4
[]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!

       x2

[]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
[]Wound up being just 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!

Solo---        x4

[]Young and fresh when []she hit town
[]Hot for kicks just to get around
[]But now she lays in a []filthy room
[  
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  x20 end on
