Lyrics:

Oh, I bet you're wondering how I knew
About you're plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Ah, but 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 will you be mine
Yeah, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah, ow!

I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life, you see
'Cos, baby, you mean that much to me
You should've told me yourself
That you love somebody else
Instead...

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

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

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

But you know
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer will you be my baby
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer will you be my baby
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer will you be my baby, be my baby
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer will you be my baby

Don't you know
I heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine

Heard it through the grapevine
I bet you're wondering how I knew
Heard it through the grapevine
About you're plans to make me blue
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
