[Chorus]
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 'nough a pity
Ain't no love 'cause you ain't around
[Verse 1]
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
And that's why I said
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Every place that I go
Oh, it seems so strange
Without you there
Things have changed
The nighttime call
There's a blanket of gloom
Another teardrop fall
In my lonely room
[Chorus]
I said there ain't no love in the heart of the city
There ain't no love in the heart of town, yeah
There ain't no love, and ain't it a pity?
Ain't no love 'cause you ain't around, love
[Bridge]
And now that you're gone
Oh, the sun don't shine
From the city hall
To the county line
[Chorus]
I said there 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
Ain't no love
