the slits
i heard it through the grapevine [*]
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 loved 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 I'm just about to lose my mind   Honey, honey yeah. I heard it through the grapevine  Not much longer would you be mine baby   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 loved some one else Instead 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 I heard it through the grapevine  Not much longer would you be mine, baby   People say believe half of what you see Son and none of what you hear But I can't help but be 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, baby yeah I heard it through the grapevine  I'm just about to love my mind Honey, honey, yeah I heard it through the grapevine, Not much longer would you be mine, baby yeah
