Nice Guy Lyrics by Eric Paslay

Nice Guy

0

I'm gonna stop usin' my manners
Gonna start sendin' mean tweets
Gonna start actin' as if I'm God's gift
To everybody I meet

I'm gonna stop kissin' on one girl
Mess around with a few
Put a bumper sticker on my Bentley says evidently
Jesus loves me a lot more than you

It don't pay to be a nice guy in a bad guy world
It don't pay to be a nice guy when the bad guy always gets the girl
You gotta be an a-hole if you wanna bank roll
Maybe that's why I'm poor
What can I say it just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
What can I say it just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore

I'm gonna do my best to get arrested
Take a drunk mug shot
When I go out clubbin' gonna rolls these hubs
Right up in that handicap spot

Gonna fill a bunch of YouTubes up
Doing somethin' obscene
Do whatever it takes to get my irritatin' face
On the cover of a Hollywood magazine

It don't pay to be a nice guy in a bad guy world
It don't pay to be a nice guy when the bad guy always gets the girl
You gotta be an a-hole if you wanna bank roll
Maybe that's why I'm poor
What can I say it just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
What can I say it just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore

I say hey, it don't pay it don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
Nice guy anymore
Hey, it don't pay it don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
Nice guy anymore
Hey, it don't pay it don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
Oh no

It don't pay to be a nice guy in a bad guy world
It don't pay to be a nice guy when the bad guy always gets the girl
You gotta be an a-hole if you wanna bank roll
Maybe that's why I'm poor
What can I say it just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
What can I say it just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
