Oo, Bet you're wond'ring how I knew 'bout your plans to make me
blue
With some other guy that you knew before?
Between the two of us guys, you know I love you more.
It took me by surprise, I must say, when I found out yesterday.
Oo,
CHORUS:
I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be
mine.
Oo, I heard it through the grapevine, and I'm just about to lose
my mind.
Honey, honey yeah.
You know that 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 that you found someone else.
Instead,
CHORUS
People say, "Believe half of you see, son, and none of what
you hear."
I can't help bein' 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?
Oo,
CHORUS
