I bet you're wondering how I knew.

Ah, what you're plans to make me blue.

With some other guy you knew before.

Between the two of us, you know I love you more.



It took me by surprise I must say, when I found out yesterday.

Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine)

Not much longer would you be mine. (Not much longer would you be mine)

Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine)

And I'm just about to lose my mind.



I know 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,

Oh, that you love someone else.

Instead I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine)

Not much longer would you be mine. (Not much longer would you be mine)

Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine)

Oh, and I am, and I am just about lose my mind.



People say believe half of what you see.

Oh, and none of what you hear.

Whoa, I jus' can't help being confused.

If it's true please tell me dear.



Do you plan to let me go

For the other guy you left me for

Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine)

Not much longer would you be mine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it)

Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it)

Oh, heard it through the grapevine.(Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it)

I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it)

Woo, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it)-acapo
