Bobby "Blue" Bland - Ain't No Love In the Heart of the City

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

When you were mine
Oh, I was feeling so good
'Cause your love lit up
This whole neighborhood

And 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

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

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, 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 and ain't it a pity
Ain't no love 'cause you ain't around

And now that you're gone
Oh, the sun don't shine
From the city hall to the county line, 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

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
