I bet you wonderin' how I knew
Baby, baby, baby 'bout your plans to make me blue
With some other girl you knew before
Between two of us girls 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 would you be mine
Don't you 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
Baby won't you listen to me
Lord take a good look at these tears in my eyes
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 have told me yourself
That you loved somebody else
Instead I heard it through the grapevine?
Not much longer would you be mine
Don't you know that I heard it, yes I heard it
Oh, just about, just about, just about to lose my mind
Oh, yes I am
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Say, believe half of what you see
Oh, and none of what your hear
Baby I can't help but be confused
If it's true please baby won't you tell me dear
Oh, do you plan to let me go
For the other girl you loved before?
Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine?
Not much longer would you be mine
Don't you know that I heard it, yes I heard it
Oh, I heard it, heard it
