Greg holland divine intervention lyrics

(Sam Hogin/Phil Barnhart/Mark D. Sanders)



If I remember right her name was Betty

We were graduatin’ 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’ him

But lookin’ back musta been



Divine intervention

That got her attention

It wasn’t superstition or woman’s intuition

I’ve ruled out random chance

Destiny, Circumstance

Biology, Astrology

It wasn’t numerology

Karma, Zeus or Zen

Blowin’ in the wind

The only Ying Yang Gol’ 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

I met up lip to lip with my Mrs.

She was walkin’ through the park

I said "Lord here goes my heart"

It was



Divine intervention

That got her attention

It wasn’t superstition or woman’s intuition

I’ve ruled out random chance

Destiny, Circumstance

Biology, Astrology

It wasn’t numerology

Karma, Zeus or Zen

Blowin’ in the wind

The only Ying Yang Gol’ Dang

Thing it could have been 

Was divine intervention… yeah

Divine intervention



Divine intervention

That got her attention

It wasn’t superstition or woman’s intuition

I’ve ruled out random chance

Destiny, Circumstance

Biology, Astrology

It wasn’t numerology

Karma, Zeus or Zen

Blowin’ in the wind

The only Ying Yang Gol’ Dang

Thing it could have been 

Was divine intervention… yeah

Divine intervention

Divine intervention…yeah

Divine intervention
