I Heard It Through the Grapevine

Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew

'Bout 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

Heard it through the grapevine

Not much longer would you be mine, baby

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

Heard it through the grapevine

Not much longer would you be mine, baby

People say believe half of what you see

Son, and none of what you hear

But I can't help but be 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, I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey, honey, yeah

Heard it through the grapevine

Not much longer would you be mine, baby

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Honey, honey, I know (Heard it through the grapevine)

(Not much longer would you be mine, baby) That you're letting me go

Said I heard it through the grapevine (Heard it through the grapevine)

(Not much longer would you be mine, baby) Ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
