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 enough for pity Ain't no love cause you ain't around When you were mine, oh I was feeling so good Cause your love lit up this whole neighborhood 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 would change The nighttime crowd, there's a blanket of blue Another teardrop fall 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 and ain't it a pity Ain't no love cause you ain't around, Lord 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 and 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
