Coat Of Many Colors Lyrics - The Essential Dolly Parton, Vol. 2 - Dolly Parton

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 fall 

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 

 

Photos 

 

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
