  • Here come the nice, looking so good
    He makes me feel like no one else could
    He knows what I want he's got what I need
    He's always there if I need some speed

    Here come the nice (its understood)
    Here come the nice (he'll make you feel good)
    I'd be just like him (if I only could)
    (you know you should)

    You know you should meet the man (the man)
    The man gonna help you all he can
    You don't money to be wise

    Here come the nice, looking so cool
    Everyone knows the nice is no fool
    He'll bring you up, and show you around
    He's always there if your feet hit the ground

    You know you got to try to meet the man (the man)
    The man gonna teach you all he can
    You don't need money to open your eyes Writer/s: RONNIE LANE, STEVE MARRIOTT
