Ain´t no love in the heart of the city,
Ain´t no love in the heart of town.
Ain´t no love, sure ´nuff is a pity,
Ain´t no love ´cos you ain´t around.
Baby, since you been around.

Ain´t no love in the heart of the city,
Ain´t no love in the heart of town.
Ain´t no love, sure ´nuff is a pity, child
Ain´t no love ´cos you ain´t around.

Every place that I go,
Well, it seems so strange.
Without you love, baby, baby,
Things have changed.
Now that you´re gone
Y´know the sun don´t shine,
From the city hall
To the county line, that´s why

Ain´t no love in the heart of the city,
Ain´t no love in the heart of town.
Ain´t no love, sure ´nuff is a pity,
Ain´t no love ´cos you ain´t around.

Every place that I go,
Well, it seems so strange.
Without you love, baby, baby,
Things have changed.
Now that you´re gone
Y´know the sun don´t shine,
From the city hall
Woman, to the county line, an´ that´s why

Ain´t no love in the heart of the city,
There ain´t no love in the heart of town.
There ain´t no love, sure ´nuff is a pity,
Ain´t no love ´cos you ain´t around.

There ain´t no love in the heart of the city,
There ain´t no love in the heart of town.
Ain´t no love, sure ´nuff is a pity,
Ain´t no love ´cos you ain´t around,
´Cos you ain´t around.
