Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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 a pity
Ain't no love 'cause you ain't around
[Verse 2]
When you were mine, oh, I was feelin' so good
'Cause you lovely-d 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
[Verse 3]
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 4]
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 teardrop falls in my lonely room
[Verse 5]
I said, ain't no love in the heart of the city
Ain't no love in the heart of town, yeah
Ain't no love and ain't it a pity?
Ain't no love 'cause you ain't around, lord
[Verse 6]
And now that you're gone, oh, the sun don't shine
From the city hall to the county line
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Ain't no love in the heart of this town
