Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
  'Bout your plans to make me blue
  With some other guy 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
  
  Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine
  Not much longer would you be mine
  Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
  Oh, and I'm just about to lose my mind
  Honey, honey, yeah
  
  I know 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 love someone else
  
  Instead I heard it through the grapevine
  Not much longer would you be mine
  Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
  Oh, and I'm just about to lose my mind
  Honey, honey, yeah
  
  People say believe half of what you see
  Son, and none of what you hear
  But I can't help bein' confused
  If it's true, please tell me dear
  Do you plan to let me go
  For the other guy you loved before?
  
  Don't you know I heard it through the grapevine
  Not much longer would you be mine
  Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
  And I'm just about to lose my mind
  Honey, honey, yeah
