I don't know much when I knew less
And I was heartbroke for the first time
Drowning in my tears
I went looking for a lifeline
Trying to find some comfort
Just a simple tender touch
Searching for some little cure
That would mot cost too much
And I can hear that produce wagon on the street
I can hear that farmer singing
'Cause I cried myself to sleep
"I got bananas, and watermelon
and peaches by the pound
sweet corn, mirleton, more better than in town
I've got okra, enough to choke you
Beans of every kind
If hungry is what's eating you
I'll sell you piece of mind"
But this ain't what you came to hear me say
And I hate to disappoint you
I got no love today
I got no love today
I got no love today
No love today
I could not love to save myself
from lonesome desperation
Everything I thought was love
was worthless imitation
My concept of commitment
was to take all you could give
I thought the cheapest thrills
I loved were teaching me to live
But nothing seemed to last or see me through
Nothing but that little song
that I still sing for you
"I got bananas, and watermelon
and peaches by the pound,
sweet corn, mirleton, more better than in town
I've got okra, enough to choke you
Beans of every kind
If hungry is what's eating you
I'll sell you piece of mind"
But this ain't what you came to hear me say
And I hate to disappoint you
I got no love today
I got no love today
I got no love today
No love today
No love today
none tomorrow
not now
not forever
You can't see what comes for free
I think you're much too clever
For your own good
I will tell you what's right before your eyes
Intelligence is no defense against what this implies
In the end no one will sell you what you need
You can't buy it off the shelf
You got to grow it from the seed
'Cause, "I got bananas, and watermelon
and peaches by the pound
Sweet corn, mirleton
more better than in town
I've got okra
enough to choke you
Beans of every kind
If hungry is what's eating you
I'll sell you piece of mind"
But this ain't what you came to hear me say
And I hate to disappoint you
But I'm gonna disappoint you
I've got no love today
I got no love today
I got no love today
No love today
