 Ooo, bet  you're wondering how I knew, about you're 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.
 Ooo, I heard  it through the grapevine, not much longer  would
 you be mine. Ooo, I heard  it through the grapevine, and I'm just  about to
 lose my mind, honey, honey yeah.
 4x
 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 have told  me yourself,  that you found  someone else.
 Instead, I heard  it through the grapevine, not much longer  would
 you be mine. Ooo, I heard  it through the grapevine, and I'm just  about to
 lose my mind, honey, honey yeah.
 4x
 People say believe  half of what you see, nah nah nah  from what you hear.
 I can't help  being confused, if it's true  wouldn t you tell  me, hear?
 Do you plan  to let me go,  for the other guy  that you knew before?
 Ooo, I heard  it through the grapevine, not much longer  would
