Mmm, I bet you're wondering how I knew
Baby, baby, baby, about your plans to make me blue (How)
With some other girl you knew before
Between the two of us girls, 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
(Oh, I heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer would you be mine
(Not much longer would you be mine)
Oh, don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine
(Oh, I heard it through the grapevine)
And I'm just about, just about, just about to lose my mind
Oh yes, I am
(Oh yes, I am; oh, yes, I am; oh, yes, I am)
Baby, won't you listen to me
Boy, take a good look at these tears of mine
Baby, baby, these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life, you see
Because you mean that much to me
You could've told me yourself
That you love somebody else
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
(Oh, I heard it through the grapevine)
Oh, not much longer you be mine
(Not much longer would you be mine)
Don't you know that I heard it (Heard it)
Yes, I heard it (Heard it through the grapevine)
Oh, just about, just about, just about to lose my mind
Oh yes, I am
(Oh yes, I am; oh, yes, I am; oh, yes, I am)
Go-o-o-o-o, go
Go, I gotta go
Whoa, whoa, if you gonna let me go
Whoa-whoa-whoa, I gotta go
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa, I gotta go
Say believe half of what you see (Yes, I heard it)
Oh, ho, and none of what you hear (Yes, I heard it)
Baby, but I just can't help being confused (Yes, I heard it)
If it's true please baby, won't you tell me, dear (Yes, I heard it)
Oh, do you plan to let me go?
For the other girl you loved before?
Don't you know that I heard through the grapevine
(Oh, I heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer you be mine
(Not much longer would you be mine)
Don't you know that I heard it (Heard it)
Yes, I heard it (Heard it through the grapevine)
Oh, I heard it (Heard it)
Heard it (Heard it, heard it through the grapevine)

If I Were Your Woman
If I were you woman
And you were my man
You'd have no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strength
To walk out that door
My love would over rule my sense
And I'd call you back for more
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
And you were my man
Yeah
She tears you down Darling
Says you're nothing at all
But I'll pick you up Darling
When she lets you fall
You're like a diamond
And she treats you like glass
Yet you make it hard to love you
But Babe don't ask
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never no, no, no stop loving you
Yeah
Life is so crazy
And love is unkind
Because she came first
Will she hang on your mind
You're a part of me
And you don't even know it
I'm what you need
But I'm too afraid to show it
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, no, no, no stop loving you
If I were your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never, never stop loving you
If I were your woman
You're sweet lovin' woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
You'd need no other woman
And you were my man
You'd have no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strength
To walk out that door
My love would over rule my sense
And I'd call you back for more
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
If I were your woman
If you were my woman
And you were my man
Yeah
She tears you down Darling
Says you're nothing at all
But I'll pick you up Darling
When she lets you fall
You're like a diamond
And she treats you like glass
Yet you make it hard to love you

If I were your woman
Here's what I'd do

Neither One of Us (Wants to Be the First to Say Goodbye)
[ Featuring Gladys Knight, the Pips ]
It's sad to think
We're not gonna make it
And it's gotten to the point
Where we just can fake it (Ooh)
For some ungodly reason
We just won't let it down (let it down)
I guess neither one of us (neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say goodbye
I keep on wondering (wondering)
What I'm gonna do with out ya (do without you)
And I guess you must be
Wondering that same thing too (Ooh)
So we go on
Go on together living our lives (living our lives)
Because neither one of us (neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say goodbye
Ooh every time I find the nerve
Every time I find the nerve to say I'm leavin' (leavin')
Oh, memories, those old memories
Get in my way (my way my way)
Oh (Ooh) Lord knows it's only me only knows it's only me
That I'm deceiving
When it comes to say goodbye
That's a simple word that I just cannot say
There can be no way (be no way)
This can have a happy ending (happy ending)
So we just go on (we go on)
Hurting and pretending
And convincing ourselves
To give it just one more try (one more try)
Because neither one of us (Neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us (neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us (Neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say
Farewell my love, goodbye (goodbye)

Oh calm down people now we can do it
I can prove it but only if our hearts are willing
Now get aboard the friendship train
Everybody, shake a hand, shake a hand

Midnight Train To Georgia
L.A. proved too much for the man
(Too much for the man, he couldn't make it)
So he's leavin' the life he's come to know, ooh
(He said he's goin')
He said he's goin' back to find
(Goin' back to find)
Ooh ooh ooh, what's left of his world
The world he left behind
Not so long ago
He's leavin' (leavin')
On that midnight train to Georgia
(Leavin' on the midnight train)
Yeah, said he's goin' back
(Goin' back to find)
To a simpler place in time
(Whenever he takes that ride) oh yes he is
(Guess who's gonna be right by his side)
And I'll be with him (I know you will)
On that midnight train to Georgia
(Leavin' on the midnight train to Georgia)
I'd rather live in his world (live in his world)
Than live without him in mine
(Her world is his, his and hers alone)
He kept dreamin' (dreamin')
Ooh, that someday he'd be a star
(A superstar, but he didn't get far)
But he sure found out the hard way
That dreams don't always come true
(Dreams don't always come true) oh no
(Uh uh) uh uh (no, uh uh)
So he pawned all his hopes (ooh ooh ooh)
And he even sold his old car (woo woo woo)
Bought a one way ticket back
To the life he once knew
Oh, yes, he did
He said he would
Oh, oh, he's leavin' (leavin')
On that midnight train to Georgia

You're The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me
I've had my share of life's ups and downs
But fate's been kind, the downs have been few
I guess you could say that I've been lucky
Well, I guess you could say that it's all because of you
If anyone should ever write my life story
(For whatever reason there might be)
For whatever reason there might be
Ooh, you'll be there between each line of pain and glory
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me
(You're the best thing that ever happened to me)
Ah, you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Oh, there have been times when times were hard
But always somehow I made it, I made it through
'Cause for every moment that I've spent hurting
There was a moment that I spent, ah, just loving you
If anyone should ever write my life story
For whatever, for whatever reason there might be
Oh, you'll be there between each line of pain and glory
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me
(You're the best thing that ever happened to me)
Oh, you're the best thing that ever happened to me
(You're the best thing that ever happened to me)
I know, you're the best thing, oh, that ever happened to me
Yeah
But fate's been kind, the downs have been few
I guess you could say that I've been lucky
Well, I guess you could say that it's all because of you
If anyone should ever write my life story
(For whatever reason there might be)
For whatever reason there might be
Ooh, you'll be there between each line of pain and glory
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me

Ah, you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Oh, there have been times when times were hard

I've Got to Use My Imagination
I've really got to use my imagination
To think of good reasons
To keep on keepin' on (keep on keepin' on)
Got to make the best of (best of, best of) a bad situation (bad situation)
Ever since that day (ever since that day) I woke up and found
That you were gone (gone, gone)
Darkness all around me
Blackin' out the sun
Old friends call me
But I just don't feel like talkin' to anyone
Emptiness has found me
And it just won't let me go
Go right on livin'
But why, I just don't know
(You're too strong not to keep on keeping on) Yes, I am
(You're too strong not to keep on keeping on) staring down reality
Don't do me no good
'Cause our misunderstanding
Is too well understood (too well understood)
Such a sad, sad season (sad, sad season)
When a good love dies (when a good love dies)
Not a day goes by (not a day goes by)
When I don't realize (realize)
I've really got to use my imagination (I've got to use)
To think of good reasons (I've got to use)
To keep on keepin' on (I've got to use)

(I've got to use my imagination) to keep on pushin' on
I said I've got to make the best of (best of, best of)
Of a bad situation (bad situation)
Ever since that day (ever since that day) I woke up and found that you were gone
(You're too strong not to keep on keeping on) I really got to use
(I've got to use) that imagination, gotta think of good reasons
To think of good reasons
To keep on keepin' on (keep on keepin' on)
Got to make the best of (best of, best of) a bad situation (bad situation)

Letter Full Of Tears
Here comes the mailman walking, walking, walking up the street
And it looks like he has a letter today for me, oh yes, he does
Wait a minute let me look inside
No, it couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be from my guy
Because he brought me, yeah
I said, he brought me
A letter full of tears
I thought we had a love so strong, oh yes we did now
It would take a lifetime to break us apart, yeah
But I found out today, I found out today I was wrong, yes I was
And my reward, my reward was a broken heart, oh
Here comes the teardrops
Welcome, welcome to my eyes
And I couldn't hold 'em back, so couldn't hold 'em back
No matter if I tried, no, no, no
Wait a minute let me look inside
No, it couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be from my guy
Because he brought me
I said, he brought me
A letter full of tears
Bringing me tears, oh yes he did
Here he comes y'all
Yes he did
Bringing me tears, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Yes he did
I said he brought me
Yeah, yes he did
A letter full of tears, y'all
Said I waited such a long time
Just to get my mailman but he brought me
And it looks like he has a letter today for me, oh yes, he does
Wait a minute let me look inside
No, it couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be from my guy
Because he brought me, yeah
I said, he brought me
A letter full of tears
I thought we had a love so strong, oh yes we did now
It would take a lifetime to break us apart, yeah
But I found out today, I found out today I was wrong, yes I was
And my reward, my reward was a broken heart, oh
Here comes the teardrops
Welcome, welcome to my eyes
And I couldn't hold 'em back, so couldn't hold 'em back
No matter if I tried, no, no, no
Wait a minute let me look inside
No, it couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be, couldn't be from my guy
Because he brought me
I said, he brought me
A letter full of tears
Bringing me tears, oh yes he did
Here he comes y'all
Yes he did
Bringing me tears, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Yes he did
I said he brought me
Yeah, yes he did
A letter full of tears, y'all
Said I waited such a long time
Just to get my mailman but he brought me

Every Beat Of My Heart
In every beat of my heart
There's a beat for you
In every toast of wine
There's a toast for you, oh, yes, it is
In all of my, my conversation
You're my, my inspiration
And everything I do
I'll do for you
Although we're, we're so far apart
My, my love is true, so true, true
In, in every, every beat of my heart
There's a beat for you
(In every beat of my heart)
Heart
There's a beat for you
In every toast of wine
There's a toast for you, oh, yes, it is
In all of my, my conversation
You're my, my inspiration
And everything I do
I'll do for you
Although we're, we're so far apart
My, my love is true, so true, true
In, in every, every beat of my heart
There's a beat for you
(In every beat of my heart)
Heart
