Lyrics:
Ooh, My 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 outside
Losin' you would end my life you see
Because you mean that much to me
You could've told me yourself
That you love somebody 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, 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
