Ooh, I bet you wonder how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
If that's true please tell me love
It took me by surprise my love baby
When I found out yesterday.
Don't ya know that I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
Now I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey
I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
See losin' you would end my life you see
Cause you mean that much to me
And you could've told me yourself
That you love someone else.
Don't ya know that I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer you be mine
Ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
Now I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey I know that you let me go
Honey honey I know that you let me go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
[4x:]
Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be my baby
