[00:06.63]Back through the years
[00:07.44]I go wonderin' once again
[00:12.26]Back to the seasons of my youth
[00:16.45]I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
[00:21.89]And how my momma put the rags to use
[00:27.39]There were rags of many colors
[00:30.33]Every piece was small
[00:33.46]And i didn't have a coat
[00:36.21]And it was way down in the fall
[00:39.08]Momma sewed the rags together
[00:41.84]Sewin' every piece with love
[00:44.46]She made my coat of many colors
[00:47.03]That i was so proud of
[00:51.84]As she sewed she told a story
[00:54.47]From the bible she had read
[00:57.35]About a coat of many colors
[01:00.23]Joseph wore and then she said
[01:03.17]Perhaps this coat will bring you
[01:05.98]Good luck and happiness
[01:06.51]And i just couldn't wait to wear it
[01:11.95]And momma blessed it with a kiss
[01:14.26]Chorus
[01:14.64]My coat of many colors
[01:17.08]That my momma made for me
[01:21.79]Made only from rags
[01:23.23]But i wore it so proudly
[01:28.67]Although we had no money
[01:32.68]I was rich as i could be
[01:34.42]In my coat of many colors
[01:37.30]My momma made for me
[01:43.56]So with patches on my britches
[01:46.99]Holes in both my shoes
[01:49.81]In my coat of many colors
[01:52.37]I hurried off to school
[02:03.16]And making fun of me
[02:04.17]In my coat of many colors
[02:05.17]My momma made for me
[02:07.23]And oh i couldn't understand it
[02:10.73]For i felt i was rich
[02:13.19]And i told them of the love
[02:15.69]My momma sewed in every stitch
[02:18.63]And i told 'em all the story
[02:21.57]Momma told me while she sewed
[02:24.76]And how my coat of many colors
[02:27.26]Was worth more than all their clothes
[02:31.14]But they didn't understand it
[02:32.95]And i tried to make them see
[02:35.13]That one is only poor
[02:38.83]Only if they choose to be
[02:42.76]Now i know we had no money
[02:47.02]But i was rich as i could be
[02:49.71]In my coat of many colors
[02:52.40]My momma made for me
[02:55.96]Made just for me
