Ain't no love in the heart of the city
Daddy, there ain't no love in the heart of town.
Oh daddy, ain't no love, and it sure enough a pity,
Daddy, there ain't no love cause you ain't around.

When you were mine, yea I was feeling so good
Cause your love lit up this old neighborhood
Oh daddy, now that you're gone, you know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall to the county line, yeah
That's why I say

There ain't no love in the heart of the city
Daddy, there ain't no love in the heart of town.
Oh daddy, ain't no love, and it sure enough a pity,
Daddy, there ain't no love cause you ain't around.

Every place where I go, and now it seems so strange.
Without you there, yea, things have changed.
Oh daddy, now that you're gone, you know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall to the county line, yeah
That's why I say

There ain't no love in the heart of the city
Daddy, there ain't no love in the heart of town.
Oh daddy, ain't no love, and it sure enough a pity,
Daddy, there ain't no love cause you ain't around.

The rusty trombones!

Oh daddy, now that you're gone, you know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall to the county line, yeah
Oh daddy, now that you're gone, you know the sun don't shine,
From the city hall to the county line,
That's why I say

There ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
Ain't no love
