The Whole Town’s Talking Songtext
von Billy Paul

I got the news today, I heard it through the grapevine
Everybody says that I′m yours and you're mine

And now the whole town′s talking
The whole town is talking
Talking 'bout you and me, you and me
I knew somebody saw us

I thought nobody knew, I thought we had a secret
Now every place I go, people stopped there and whispered

And now the whole town's talking
The whole town is talking
Talking ′bout you and me, you and me
I knew, I told you somebody saw us

I don′t care what they say
A love for you, my love for you is so strong
Why don't they just mind their business?
A love so true could never, never, never end in, end in, end in pain

I heard the news today, hey baby, through the gossip grapevine
Everybody says that I′m yours and you're mine


And now the whole town′s talking
The whole town is talking
Talking 'bout you and me
Talking ′bout you and me
Talking 'bout you and me, you and me
Told you somebody saw us (whole town's talking)

I heard it throught the grapevine (the whole town′s talking)
(The whole town′s talking) people stopped and whispered
(The whole town's talking)
The whole town is talking

(The whole town′s talking) I don't care what people think
(The whole town′s talking) my love for you is strong
(The whole town's talking) strong, strong, strong
The whole town′s talking

(The whole town's talking) why don't they just mind their business?
(The whole town′s talking) a love so true could never, never
(The whole town′s talking) never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never
(The whole town's talking) never, never, never, never, never!

(The whole town′s talking) heard it through the grapevine
(The whole town's talking) heard it through the grapevine
(The whole town′s talking) whole town is talking 'bout it
(The whole town′s talking) the whole town is talking 'bout it
(The whole town's talking) the whole town is talking ′bout it
(The whole town′s talking) the whole town is talking 'bout it


(The whole town′s talking) I heard it through the gossip grapevine
(The whole town's talking) the gossip grapevine
(The whole town′s talking) I got the news today
(The whole town's talking) I thought nobody knew
(The whole town′s talking) and we've got a secret
(The whole town's talking) and we have a secret
(The whole town′s talking) why don′t they just mind their business
(The whole town's talking) and leave us alone?

(The whole town′s talking)
(The whole town's talking)
(The whole town′s talking) whole town's talking
(The whole town′s talking) whole town
(The whole town's talking) is talking, talking
(The whole town's talking)
(The whole town′s talking)
(The whole town′s talking)
