I bet you wonder how I knew
About your plans to make me blue
Between the two of us guys, you know
You took me by surprise, I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don't you know that I heard
you through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard you through the grapevine
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind,
When I heard the grapevine
and I heard the tears of grapevine,
I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But this dear I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life, you see
Cause you mean that much to me
You could have told yourself
that you love someone else
Instead I hurled it through the grapevine
Not much longer will you be mine
Oh, I hurled it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
that someone's gonna steal my baby
that someone's gonna steal my baby
People say that it hurts on what you see
But I can't help being confused
If it's true, please tell me,
For the other guy you love so?
I heard the truth a great mile
Not much longer would you be mine
Baby, I heard the truth a great mile
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
and someone's got to steal my baby
and someone's got to slice my throat
I said I heard it through the
Someone's got to steal my baby
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, she said, I heard it through the grapevine
