How much longer would you be mine, baby?
And I'm just about to lose my mind
I heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be mine, baby?
Son, and none of what you hear
Heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be mine, baby?
Not much longer would you be mine
It took me by surprise I must say
How much longer would you be mine, baby?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
People say believe half of what you see
Not much longer would you be mine
Between the two of us guys you know I love you more
And I'm just about to lose my mind
I heard it through the grapevine?
I heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Instead
Baby, I heard it through the grapevine
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When I found out yesterday
Heard it through the grapevine
Don't you know that
You could have told me yourself
How much longer would you be mine, baby?
If it's true, please tell me, dear
Not much longer would you be mine
Heard it through the grapevine
For the other guy you loved before?
I can't help bein' confused
Heard it through the grapevine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Honey, honey, yeah
Honey, honey, yeah
'Cause you mean that much to me
Honey, honey, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
That you love someone else
Losin' you would end my life you see
But these tears can't hold inside
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
I know that a man ain't supposed to cry
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Instead
Some other guy that knew before
Do you plan to let me go
Heard it through the grapevine
