Ooh, I bet you're wond'rin' how I knew
|
Baby, baby, baby, 'bout your plans to make me blue [how]
|
With some other girl you knew before
|
Between the two of us girls ya know I love you more
|
It took me by surprise I must say
|
When I found out yesterday.
|
|
Don't ya know that I heard it through the grapevine
|
Not much longer would you be mine
|
Oh, don't ya know that I heard it through the grapevine
|
And I'm just about, just about, just about, to lose my mind
|
Oh yes, I am, Oh yes, I am, Oh yes, I am.
|
|
Baby won't you listen to me.
|
|
Boy take a good look at these tears of mine
|
Baby, baby these tears I can't hold inside
|
Losin' you would end my life you see
|
Because you mean that much to me
|
You could've told me yourself
|
That you love some body else.
|
|
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
|
Oh-h, not much longer you be mine
|
Oh, I heard it, yes, I heard it [heard it through the grapevine]
|
Oh, just about, just about, just about, to lose my mind
|
Oh yes, I am, Oh yes, I am, Oh yes, I am
|
|
Go-o-o-o-o, go
|
Go, I gotta go
|
Go, go
|
You gotta let me go
|
Go, go, go
|
I gotta go whoa, whoa, whoa
|
|
Say believe half of what you see
|
Oh, ho, and none of what you hear
|
Baby, but I just can't help bein' confused
|
If it's true please baby, won't ya tell me dear
|
Oh-h-h, do you plan to let me go
|
For the other girl you loved before?
|
Don't ya know that I heard through the grapevine
|
Not much longer would you be mine
|
Don't ya know that I heard it, yes I heard it
|
