Ain’t No Love in the Heart of the City

[Chorus]
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Ain't no love in this heart of town
Ain't no love, and you know it's a pity
Ain't no love cause you ain't around

[Verse 1]
When you were mine
I was feeling so good
Cause you loved me up
This old neighborhood
And now that you're gone
The sun don't shine
From the city hall
To the county line
That's why

[Chorus]
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Ain't no love in this 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]
Every place that I go
Oh, it seems so strange
Without you there
Things have changed
When night time comes
There's a blanket of gloom
Now that you've gone from
My lonely room

[Chorus]
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Ain't no love in this heart of town
Ain't no love, and it's sure enough a pity
Ain't no love cause you ain't around

[Bridge]
When night time comes
There's a blanket of gloom
Now that' you've gone from
My lonely room

[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 you know it's a pity
Ain't no love cause you ain't around

[Chorus]
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Ain't no love in this heart of town
Ain't no love, and you know it's a pity
Ain't no love cause you ain't around
Cause you ain't around

[Outro]
Canton, Mississippi
You know ain't no love in the heart of town, baby
Miami
Uh uh uh, there ain't no love
Burbank, California
Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Memphis, Tennessee
Just ain't no love in the heart of town
Chicago, Illinois
Said there ain't no love, baby
