Ain't no love in the heart of the city

Ain't no love in the heart of town

Ain't no love and it's sure nuff a pity

Ain't no love cause you ain't around



When you were mine

Oh, I was feeling good

Cause you lovlied up

This whole nieghborhood



But now that you're gone

You know the sun don't shine

From the city hall to the county line

That's why I said



Ain't no love in the heart of the city

Ain't no love in the heart of town

Ain't no love and it sure is a pity

Ain't no love cause you ain't around



Every place that I go

Oh, it seems so strange

Without you there

Things have changed



The nights are cold

There's a blanket of gloom

Another trick I saw

In my lonely room



I said ain't no love

In the heart of the city

Ain't no love in the heart of town

Ain't no love, ain't any pity

Ain't no love cause you ain't around



And now that you're gone

Oh, the sun don't shine

From the city hall to

The county line, I said



Ain't no love in the heart of the city

Ain't no love in the heart of town

Ain't no love, it sure is a pity

Ain't no love cause you ain't around

Cause you ain't around



Ain't no love in the heart of the city

Ain't no love in this great big old town

Ain't no love and ain't it a pity

Ain't no love cause you ain't around



Ain't no love in the heart of the city

Ain't no love in the heart of this town
