[Verse 1] Ooh-ooh, bet you're wondering how I knew 'Bout your plan to make me blue With some other guy that you knew before? Between the two of us guys, you know I love you more Took me by surprise, I must say, when I found out yesterday [Chorus] Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey yeah [Verse 2] You know that a man ain't supposed to cry But these tears I can't hold inside Losing you would end my life, you see 'Cause you mean that much to me You could've told me yourself that you found someone else Instead [Chorus] I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey yeah [Verse 3] People say "You hear from what you see Not, not, not from what you hear." I can't help but being confused If it's true, won't you tell me dear? Do you plan to let me go For the other guy that you knew before? [Chorus] Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey yeah [Guitar Solo (2:51 - 4:27)] [Chorus] Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Aah-aah, I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey yeah [Instrumental Outro (5:01 - 11:02)]
