Lyrics

[Intro] Now, ladies and gentlemen We're gonna bring out some folks Gladys Knight and The Pips [Verse 1] I bet you're wondering how I knew Baby, 'bout your plan to make me blue With some other girl you knew before Between the two of us girls, you know I love you more It took me by surprise, I must say When I found out yesterday [Chorus] Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine (Oh, I heard it through the grapevine) Not much longer would you be mine (Not much longer would you be mine) Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine (Oh, 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 (Oh, yes, I am) Baby, won't you listen to me? [Verse 2] Boy, take a good look at these tears in my eyes Baby, baby, these tears I can't hold inside Losing you would end my life, you see Because you mean that much to me You could have told me yourself That you were loving someone else [Chorus] Instead I heard it through the grapevine (Oh, I heard it through the grapevine) Oh, not much longer would you be mine (Not much longer would you be mine) Don't you know that 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 (Oh, yes, I am) Oh, yes, I am Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh [Verse 3] Why won't you hear me, boy? Woah-woah-woah People say, "Believe half of what you see" (I heard it) Oh, oh (Yes, I heard it) "None of what you hear" (I heard it, yes, I heard it) Baby, but I, I just can't help being confused (I heard it, yes, I heard it) If it's true please, baby, won't you tell me, dear Oh, do you plan to let me go For the other girl you loved before? [Chorus] Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine (Oh, I heard it through the grapevine) Not much longer would you be mine (Not much longer would you be mine) Don't you know that I heard it, yes, I heard it (Heard it through the grapevine) Oh, I heard it, heard it Oh, yeah, oh, yes, I did Yes, I heard it, yes, I heard it Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine You know that I heard it through the grapevine Now break it on down [Bridge] Yes, I heard it, oh, yes, I did Yes, I heard it, oh You know what's strange? But the same thing happened to my three guys Hey, fellas, come on and tell them just how you found out about it Ooh, I heard it through the grapevine Ooh, I heard it through the grapevine Heard, heard, heard, heard, heard, heard, heard, heard through the grapevine Heard, heard, heard, heard, heard, heard, heard, heard through the grapevine Yes, I heard it, oh, yes, I did Yes, I heard it (Uh-huh-huh-huh) Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey) Uh-huh-huh-huh (Uh-huh-huh-huh) Hey, hey, hey, I heard it through the grapevine You know that it heard me, baby Yes, it did Yeah, I heard it [Outro] Gladys Knight and The Pips, Gladys Knight and The Pips
