Mmm I bet you're wonderin' how i knew
Bout' your plans to make me blue
With some other girl ya knew before
Between the two of us girls ypu know i loved you more
It took me by surprise i must say
When i found out yesterday
Don't 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, I heard it through the grapevine, how much longer would you be mine baby.

Ohh I know a girl ain't supposed to cry
But these tears i can't hold inside
Losin' you would end my life ya 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
And i'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, I heard it through the grapevine, how much longer would you be mine baby.

Yeah 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 is true , please tell me dear
DO you plan to let me go
For the other girl you loved before?
Don't 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, I heard it through the grapevine, how much longer would you be mine baby.
