Divine Intervention Lyrics - Jeff Carson

If I remember right her name was Betty 

We were gradutatin' seniors, goin' steady 

I was hesitant to wed, but she was ready 

For holy matrimony 'til one night walkin' home 

She stopped off at the Strike And Spare Diner 

And lost her heart to a transfer-truck driver 

They had a rollin' honeymoon to Carolina 

I spent the whole summer cussin' them 

But lookin' back it must've been 

Divine intervention that got her attention 

It wasn't superstition or woman's intuition 

I've ruled out random chance 

Destiny or circumstance 

Biology, astrology, it wasn't numerology 

Karma, Zeus or Zen blowin' in the wind 

The only ying-yang, galdang thing it coulda been 

Was divine intervention, divine intervention 

After six or seven years of near misses 

Empty promises and half-hearted kisses 

I met up lip to lip with my misses 

She was walkin' through the park 

I said, "Lord, there goes my heart" 

Divine intervention that got her attention 

It wasn't superstition or woman's intuition 

I've ruled out random chance 

Destiny or circumstance 

Biology, astrology, it wasn't numerology 

Karma, Zeus or Zen blowin' in the wind 

The only ying-yang, galdang thing it coulda been 

Was divine intervention, divine intervention 

Divine intervention that got her attention 

It wasn't superstition or woman's intuition 

I've ruled out random chance 

Destiny or circumstance 

Biology, astrology, it wasn't numerology 

Karma, Zeus or zen blowin' in the wind 

The only ying-yang, galdang thing it coulda been 

Was divine intervention, divine intervention
