Woo I bet you're wonderin' How I knew
about your plans To make me blue
with some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys
You know I love you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don't you know that I heard it
through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey
well I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life you see
'Cause you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you love someone else instead
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey well
People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
But I can't help bein' confused if it's true
Please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go for the other guy you loved before
Don't you know I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine Baby
I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh just a bout to lose my mind
Honey honey yeah
Honey honey I know that you're lettin' me go
Said I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh Heard it through the grapevine
Ooh Heard it through the grapevine
Ah Heard it through the grapevine
