ABack through the years
I go wonderin once again
Back to the seasons of my Dyouth
I reAcall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my momma put the rags Dto use
There were Arags of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didnt have a coat
And it was Eway down in the fall
Momma Asewed the rags together
Sewin Devery piece with love
She made my Acoat of many colors
That EI was so Aproud of
As she sewed, she told a story
From the bible, she had read
About a coat of many colors
Joseph Ewore and then she said
APerhaps this coat will bring you
Good Dluck and happiness
And I just Acouldnt wait to wear it
And momma Eblessed it with a Akiss
My Dcoat of many colors
That my Amomma made for me
Made Donly from rags
But I Awore it so Eproudly
AlAthough we had no money
I was Drich as I could be
In my Acoat of many colors
My Emomma made for Ame
So with Bpatches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I Gbhurried off to school
Just to Bfind the others laughing
And Emaking fun of me
In my Bcoat of many colors
My Gbmomma made for mEe
And oh I Bcouldnt understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love
My momma Gbsewed in every stitch
And I Btold em all the story
Momma Etold me while she sewed
And how my Bcoat of many colors
Was worth Gbmore than all their cBlothes
But they Edidnt understand it
And I Btried to make them see
That Eone is only poor
Only Bif they choose to Gbbe
Now I Bknow we had no money
But I was Erich as I could be
In my Bcoat of many colors
My Gbmomma made for mEe B
