Текст песни I Heard It Through the Grapevine (Live) - Marvin Gaye

Whew!
(Come on, man, let's work out something)
I have got the tool

Hello (hello, Marvin)
Yeah, who is this? Frankie, what's happening?
Yeah, man, look here
Something funky is going down, man
What do you mean something funky is going down?
I'm over here working (oh, man, something funky is going down, look here)
I just saw your lady go in the motel room, man, with one of your best friends
And it just didn't look right, mama

Speak up, man, what you gonna say about it, man?
Try to let you know what's happening
Say what, Frankie?
Don't tell me that
What'd you say?
It's true, hommie, it's true, funky
Oh, Frankie, don't tell me my lady is like that, man (oh, man)

Listen, huh?
She-she-she just don't love you no more, man
I guess she don't love you no more
Look here, I got to go now, man
I got to go, I'll talk to you later, all right?
Frankie, don't hang up
Don't hang up, Frankie

Ooh, I bet you're wondering 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 love you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Dontcha 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 my baby, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Now I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life you see
'Cause you mean that much to me
Now you should have told me yourself (should have told me yourself)
That you love someone else
Instead I

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Now I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

(I heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(I heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(I heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, yeah, yeah, yeah)

When I heard the news, baby (I heard it through the grapevine)
I didn't know what to do, baby (I heard it through the grapevine)
It started to feel real (I heard it through the grapevine)
Broken up in my heart, baby (I heard it through the grapevine)

I didn't know how to handle the feeling, baby (I heard it through the grapevine)
I don't wanna believe it, baby (I heard it through the grapevine), no, I don't
I broke down and began to feel awful, baby (I heard it through the grapevine)
I broke down on me and the world (I heard it through the grapevine)
Why, baby? (I heard it through the grapevine)
Oh, why? (I heard it through the grapevine)

Don't you love me no more? (I heard it through the grapevine)
Don't you love me no more? (I heard it through the grapevine)
Oh, baby (I heard it through the grapevine)
Oh, baby (I heard it through the grapevine)
Ooh, what can you do? (I heard it through the grapevine)
Hey! Ah! Oh, no, listen

I know I'm in it all the time
But these tears I can't hold inside
Ooh, you're in my life, you see
Don't you mean that much to me, baby?
You should've told yourself (you should've told yourself)
That you loved somebody else (that you loved somebody else)
But instead I

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
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 my baby, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Nearly broke with you babe
(I heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer would you be mine
(I heard it through the grapevine)

Heard it through the grapevine, whew!
