[00:05.89]Back through the years
[00:08.08]I go wonderin once again
[00:11.81]Back to the seasons of my youth
[00:16.36]I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
[00:22.27]And how my momma put the rags to use
[00:27.50]There were rags of many colors
[00:31.17]Every piece was small
[00:33.70]And I didnt have a coat
[00:36.05]And it was way down in the fall
[00:39.24]Momma sewed the rags together
[00:42.06]Sewin every piece with love
[00:45.07]She made my coat of many colors
[00:47.98]That I was so proud of
[00:51.85]As she sewed she told a story
[00:54.63]From the bible she had read
[00:57.35]About a coat of many colors
[01:00.21]Joseph wore and then she said
[01:03.52]Perhaps this coat will bring you
[01:05.97]Good luck and happiness
[01:08.65]And I just couldnt wait to wear it
[01:11.56]And momma blessed it with a kiss
[01:16.00]My coat of many colors
[01:18.51]That my momma made for me
[01:21.78]Made only from rags
[01:24.44]But I wore it so proudly
[01:28.59]Although we had no money
[01:31.40]I was rich as I could be
[01:34.09]In my coat of many colors
[01:37.29]My momma made for me
[01:40.07]
[01:43.75]So with patches on my britches
[01:47.12]Holes in both my shoes
[01:49.50]In my coat of many colors
[01:52.48]I hurried off to school
[01:55.15]Just to find the others laughing
[01:58.02]And making fun of me
[02:00.77]In my coat of many colors
[02:03.80]My momma made for me
[02:07.36]And oh I couldnt understand it
[02:10.80]For I felt I was rich
[02:13.26]And I told them of the love
[02:15.75]My momma sewed in every stitch
[02:18.75]And I told em all the story
[02:21.77]Momma told me while she sewed
[02:24.14]And how my coat of many colors
[02:27.24]Was worth more than all their clothes
[02:31.35]But they didnt understand it
[02:34.11]And I tried to make them see
[02:37.34]That one is only poor
[02:39.89]Only if they choose to be
[02:44.01]Now I know we had no money
[02:46.66]But I was rich as I could be
[02:49.40]In my coat of many colors
[02:52.60]My momma made for me
[02:56.49]Made just for me
[02:58.74]
