Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew

'Bout your plans to make me blue

With some other girl, you knew before

Between the two of us girls, 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 yeah

I know a girl, ain't supposed to cry

But these tears, I can't 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 loved someone else

Instead

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 yeah

People say believe half of what you see

Son, and none of what you hear

And 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?

You know

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 yeah

I can't hide it, I can't fight it

'Cause you mean that much to me

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 yeah
