Lyrics
She hit town a rose in bloom Smell the sweet, sweet perfume The color faded and the petals died Down in the city no one cried And in the streets the garbage lies Protected by a million flies With roaches so big they got bones They moved in and made themselves at home I say nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'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 And now, she pays the price layin' down on her back Want so bad just to please the boys Ended up bein' just a toy Played so hard burned her life away Lies were told no promises made Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'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 And 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 With roaches so big they got bones They moved in and made themselves at home Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll Nice boys...they never play rock'n'roll
