I Heard It Through the Grapevine Text

---

Grapevine (Grapevine)

Ooh...
Grapevine
Ooh...
Grapevine (Grapevine)
Ooh...
Grapevine (Heard it through the grapevine)
Ooh...sho' 'nuff I need you

I heard that you're gonna leave me
Oh, I
Oh, yeah, I heard that you're gonna leave me
Oh, I
I heard it through the grapevine
Oh...
Oh, oh, oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Somebody told me 'bout your plans to leave me
Oh, oh, oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh...wow (Wow)

Better you wondered how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between us guys you know I love you much more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday, oh, Lord

I heard it through the grapevine (Heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer would you be mine (Longer would you be mine)
Heard it through the grapevine (Heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer would you be mine (Longer would you be mine)

Ooh...
Grapevine
Baby-baby-baby-baby-baby-baby
Don't leave me, girl
Because I need your love so bad

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 (Mmm, mmm, mmm)
Because you mean that much to me

You could have told me yourself
That you love someone else

Heard it through the grapevine (Heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer would you be mine (Longer would you be mine)
Heard it through the grapevine (Heard it through the grapevine)
Baby-baby-baby-baby-baby-baby-baby-baby
Baby

Grapevine
I don't want nobody else, baby
I don't want nobody else
Don't you leave me, don't you leave me, don't you leave
Don't you leave me, no, don't leave me
Don't do it
Ooh...ooh...
[Oh, I]
Ooh...

How much longer, darling, would you be mine
(Please don't tell your mama)
How much longer, darling, would you be mine
(She'll start cryin')
How much longer, darling, would you be mine
(Never try me, try me, baby)
How much longer, longer would you be mine
How much longer, longer would you be mine
How much longer, longer would you be mine (I need you, I need you so bad)
How much longer, longer would you be mine
How much longer, longer would you be mine
(Need your lovin', need your lovin')
(Need your love, your love, your love)
I really want you
Waitin' for your love, your love, your love, your love

Ooh...

Heard it through the grapevine (Said I heard it, said I heard it, baby)
(Don't you leave me, don't you leave me now)
Heard it through the grapevine
(Said I heard it through, heard it through, heard it through, tell me)

Mmm, hmm
(Just a little bit of soul now)
Your love, you know I want it
Your love
Your love, got to have it
Your love

How much longer, darling, would you be mine
(Baby, mama, baby)
How much longer, darling, would you be mine
How much longer, darling, would you be mine
(I love you)
How much longer, darling, would you be mine
(Ooh...ooh...)

Oh, oh, oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, oh, oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, oh, oh, I heard it through the grapevine
