Coat Of Many Colours |
Back through the years |
I go wonderin' once again |
Back to the seasons of my youth |
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us |
And how my momma put the rags to use |
There were rags of many colors |
Every piece was small |
And I didn’t have a coat |
And it was way down in the fog |
Momma sewed the rags together |
Sewin' every piece with love |
She made my coat of many colors |
That I was so proud of |
As she sewed, she told a story |
From the bible, she had read |
About a coat of many colors |
Joseph wore and then she said |
Perhaps this coat will bring you |
Good luck and happiness |
And I just couldn’t wait to wear it |
And momma blessed it with a kiss |
My coat of many colors |
That my momma made for me |
Made only from rags |
But I wore it so proudly |
Although we had no money |
I was rich as I could be |
In my coat of many colors |
My momma made for me |
So with patches on my britches |
Holes in both my shoes |
In my coat of many colors |
I hurried off to school |
Just to find the others laughing |
And making fun of me |
In my coat of many colors |
My momma made for me |
And oh I couldn’t understand it |
For I felt I was rich |
And I told them of the love |
My momma sewed in every stitch |
And I told 'em all the story |
Momma told me while she sewed |
And how my coat of many colors |
Was worth more than all their clothes |
But they didn’t understand it |
And I tried to make them see |
That one is only poor |
Only if they choose to be |
Now I know we had no money |
But I was rich as I could be |
In my coat of many colors |
My momma made for me |
Made just for me |
