    The Grapevine challenge!

    I thought it might be fun to see what we Grapes can come up with..... by changing the lyrics of this fantastic song to something gardening orientated??!!

    Marvin Gaye - Heard It Through The Grapevine (From "Live at Montreux" DVD) - YouTube


    I Heard It Through The Grapevine Lyrics
    by Marvin Gaye


    Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew
    About you 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.
    Don't you know that...

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

    I know that a man ain't supposed to cry,
    But these tears I 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...

    (Chorus)

    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?
    Don't you know...

    (Chorus)

    Honey Honey I know
    That you're letting me go
    said, "I heard it through the grapevine"
    Heard it through the grapevine......

      Oooh, I bet you're wondering how I grew,

      All these plants, to make a stew.

        ...worked the ground and added chook manure,

        As advised, by Grapevine guys.
        the fates lead him who will;him who won't they drag.

          My friends think I'm such a bore

          I'd rather dig than go out to play...
          the fates lead him who will;him who won't they drag.

                    With so much great veg, that I now sow
                    between my raised beds
                    you know I love to grow.

                      I Heard It Through The Grapevine Lyrics
                      by Marvin Gaye & adapted by Veggie chicken

                      Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I grew
                      A pumpkin that's as big as you
                      With some other guy that I knew before
                      We kept watch outside the stable door
                      You know that manure makes it grow more.
                      It took me by surprise I must say,
                      When I saw its size yesterday.
                      Don't you know that...

                      (Chorus
                      I heard it through the grapevine
                      Not much longer will it be mine.
                      Oh I heard it through the grapevine,
                      The Grapes are coming to eat mine,
                      Yummy, Yummy, Yeah.

                      I know that a man ain't supposed to cry,
                      But I can't keep it hidden inside.
                      Eating it would end its life you see,
                      But the Grapes mean so much more to me.
                      You can have some seeds yourself
                      To pass on to someone else.
                      Instead...

                      (Chorus)

                      People say you'll eat half of what you see,
                      and the rest will be left here for me.
                      I can't help bein' confused
                      If it's true please tell me Delia dear?
                      Can I turn it into soup or stew
                      For the others, or won't that do.
                      Don't you know...

                      (Chorus)

                      Yummy, Yummy, I know
                      There are other seeds to sow,
                      "I heard it through the grapevine"
                      Heard it through the grapevine......
