It's hard to be a nice guy all the time
Everybody knows that guilty feeling
When you hurt the one you love
Yes I'm guilty of that crimeIt's a strain to maintain that loving feeling
Even when you say don't be cruel
People being what they are there's danger
There's gun battles in the suburbsI didn't mean to be mean oh no
I didn't mean to be mean oh no
It's hard to be a nice guy all the time
Everybody knows that guilty feeling
When you hurt the one you love
Yes I'm guilty of that crimeNow I wouldn't say I was no saint
But there are worse things that I ain't
My old mum will stand by me
and she's as true as she can be
I didn't mean to be mean oh no
I didn't mean to be mean oh no
I didn't mean to be mean oh no no no no
I didn't mean to be mean oh no
I didn't mean to be mean oh no
