Slits

The Slits were a punk and post-punk band based in London, formed there in 1976 by members of the groups the Flowers of Romance and the Castrators. The group's early line-up consisted of Ari Up (Ariane Forster) and Palmolive (a.k.a. Paloma Romero, who played briefly with Spizzenergi and later left to join the Raincoats), with Viv Albertine and Tessa Pollitt replacing founding members Kate Korus and Suzy Gutsy. Their 1979 debut album, Cut, has been called one of the defining releases of the post-punk era. more »

Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew

'Bout your plans to make me blue

Some other guy that 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

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



Heard it through the grapevine

How much longer would you be mine, baby?



I know that a man ain't supposed to cry

But these tears 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 love someone 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



Heard it through the grapevine

How much longer would you be mine, baby?



People say believe half of what you see

Son, and none of what you hear

I can't help bein' confused

If it's true, please tell me, dear



Do you plan to let me go

For the other guy you loved before?

Instead



I heard it through the grapevine

Not much longer would you be mine

Baby, I heard it through the grapevine

And I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey, honey, yeah



Heard it through the grapevine

How much longer would you be mine, baby?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



Heard it through the grapevine

How much longer would you be mine, baby?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



Heard it through the grapevine

How much longer would you be mine, baby?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



Heard it through the grapevine

How much longer would you be mine, baby?
