  • Also in:

Ooo, bet you're wondering how I knew
'Bout your 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

Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

You know that a man 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 found someone else

Instead I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

People say you hear from what you see
No, no not from what you hear
I can't help bein' confused
If it's true won't you tell me dear?
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy that you knew before?

Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind

Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ah, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
