I Heard It Through the Grapevine

Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew
About you're plans to make me blue
With some other guy that 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
Don't you know, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah

Through the grapevine, how much longer
Would you be my baby?
Baby (doo, doo, doo...)

I know that a girl ain't supposed to cry
And these tears I cannot hold inside
Losin' 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've heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I've heard it through the grapevine
And I am just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah

Through the grapevine, how much longer
Would you be my baby? (Yeah)

Doo-doo, I heard it
I heard it (I heard it) I heard it (I heard it)
Oh, yeah (I heard it)

People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
I can't help bein' confused
If it's true, please tell me dear

Do you plan to let me go
For the other girl you loved before?
Don't you know...

That I've heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Don't you know I've heard it through the grapevine
And I am just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, well

Through the grapevine, how much longer
Would you be my baby? (Baby, baby, baby)

Through the grapevine
Through the grapevine (ooh)
Through the grapevine (through the grapevine)
(I heard it through the grapevine)
I heard it through the grapevine
(I heard it) I heard it (heard it)
