Divine Intervention Songtext
von Jeff Carson

If I remember right her name was Betty
We were graduating seniors going steady
I was hesitant to wed but she was ready
For holy matrimony
′Til one night walking home
She stopped off at the Strike and Spare Diner
And lost her heart to a transfer truck driver
They had a rolling honeymoon to Carolina
I spent the whole summer cussing him
But looking back it must have been

Divine intervention that got her attention
It wasn't superstition or woman′s intuition
I ruled out random chance, destiny and circumstance
Biology, astrology, it wasn't numerology
Karma, Zeus or Zen, blowing in the wind
The only yin yang, god dang thing it could have been
Was divine intervention, yeah
Divine intervention


After six or seven years of near misses
Empty promises and half-hearted kisses
Well I met up lip to lip with my missus
She was walking through the park
I said "Lord, here goes my heart"

It was divine intervention that got my attention
It wasn't superstition or woman′s intuition
I ruled out random chance, destiny and circumstance
Biology, astrology, it wasn′t numerology
Karma, Zeus or Zen, blowing in the wind
The only yin yang, god dang thing it could have been
Was divine intervention, yeah
Divine intervention

Yeah, it was divine intervention that got her attention
It wasn't superstition or woman′s intuition
I ruled out random chance, destiny and circumstance
Biology, astrology, it wasn't numerology
Karma, Zeus or Zen, blowing in the wind
The only yin yang, god dang thing it could have been
Was divine intervention, yeah
Divine intervention

Talking ′bout divine intervention, yeah
Divine intervention
Talking 'bout divine intervention, yeah
