A song from our album 'Your Time Will Come'
'Ain't No Love'
Under the spare wheel of a Mercury Ford 68,’ yeah lay a ghetto hat
N’ one long fingered glove n’ he said don’t be late, but I’m never late
N’ I knew he’d be back, huh, if push come to shove, there ain’t no love
Well I had nothin’ but a blind grin, n’ I was thinkin’ ‘bout the strange things
My mother used to say in strange ways, things she used to do with her hair
Without a care, worryin’ me there, there ain’t no love
N’ time flew through the winda like the stars’d been turned off
N’ she was always off n’ he was broke n’ had a cough, sure was
For all that he was worth, but I didn’t care what he was worth
There ain’t no love...
Now he can throw his anger off the nearside of the moon
N’ take his simple fixtures from the corner of the room
Cos I ain’t rollin’ back, not a penny not a smile
A little piece a’ that sure gonna last a pretty while
There ain’t no love
Well I was waitin’ by the depot with two fingers in the air
Seems a hat made for a ghetto sure hides a lotta hair
N’ I knew he’d bound ta’ be there in the back half of a truck
Bearin’ down all over, buryin’ his luck
There ain’t no love
Cos he’d be comin’ off the west side like thunder in a cloud
Yeah fixin’ up his best side, sure ta’ show up loud
There ain’t no love
Now he can throw his anger off the nearside of the moon
N’ take his simple fixtures from the corner of the room
Cos I ain’t rollin’ back, not a penny not a smile, no
A little piece a’ that sure gonna last a pretty while
There ain’t no love
There’s footprints in the coal shed, n’ hand prints in the snow
There's fire in the crow’s nest, now where I’m gonna go, he ain’t gonna show
There ain’t no love, ain’t no love
Now Beelzebub his’self he ain’t got nothin’ on the boy
He dirty as a blackbird, an' he's sneakier n’ oil, yeah where my gonna go
There ain’t no love, yeah yah black hearted boy
Now he can throw his anger off the nearside of the moon
N’ take his simple fixtures from the corner of the room
Cos I ain’t rollin’ back, not a penny not a smile
A little piece a’ that sure gonna last a pretty while
There ain’t no love, aha there ain't no love, ain't no love
Ain't none a' your love
Yeah I'm gonna put my ghetto hat on sideways n’ just leave the scene, ain't no love
Diggin’ in the dirt cos there ain’t no love
Cos I'm diggin’ in the dirt an' there ain’t no love
Diggin’ in the dirt cos there ain’t no love
Diggin' in the dirt cos there ain't no love
Diggin' in the dirt cos there ain't no love
Diggin' in the dirt cos there ain't no love
