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 enough is a pity Ain't no love cause you ain't around
 
When you were mine I was feeling so good 'Cause your love lit up This old neighbourhood But now that you're gone You know the sun don't shine From the city hall to the county line
 
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 enough is a pity Ain't no love cause you ain't around
 
Every place that I go It seems so strange Without you there Things have changed When your night-time calls There's a blanket of gloom Another teardrop falls in my lonely room
