Song lyrics I heard it through the grapevine by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Oo, Bet youīre wondīring how I knew ībout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy that 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. Oo,
[Chorus:]
I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine.
Oo, I heard it through the grapevine, and Iīm just about to lose my mind.
Honey, honey yeah.

You know that a man ainīt supposed to cry, but these tears I canīt hold inside.
Losinī you would end my life you see, īcause you mean that much to me.
You could have told me yourself that you found someone else.
Instead,

[Chorus]

People say you "Hear from what you see, na na not from what you hear."
I canīt help beinī confused; if itīs true, wonīt you tell me dear?
Do you plan to let me go for the other guy that you knew before? Oo,

[Chorus]
