Bet you're wondering how I knew
About your plans to make me blue
With some other girl that you knew before
Between the two of us girls you know I loved you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Yes,
don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine
And not much longer would you be mine
Baby, baby, I
heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just
about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah
I know true love shouldn't make you
cry But these tears I can't hold inside
I'm losing you and my life you see Because you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself That you found someone else
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
And not much longer would you be mine
Baby,
baby,
I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah
Heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine,
baby
Heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine,
baby
Heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine,
baby
Heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine,
baby
Baby, people say believe half of what you see
And nothing from what you hear But I can't help but be confused
If it's true,
won't you tell me here Do you plan to let me go
Follow that other girl you knew before
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
And not much longer would you be mine Baby,
baby,
I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind Baby,
baby,
I heard it through the grapevine
And not much longer would you be mine Baby,
baby,
I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey,
honey,
yeah
Heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine,
baby
Heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine,
baby
