Coat Of Many Colors - Hit Crew Masters[00:00:00]
Back through the years I go wondering once again[00:00:06]
Back to the seasons of my youth[00:00:12]
I recall a box of rags someone gave us[00:00:17]
How my momma put those rags to use[00:00:24]
There were rags of many colors every piece was small[00:00:29]
And I didn't have a coat it was late in the fall[00:00:35]
Sewed the rags together she sewed every piece with love[00:00:41]
She made my coat of many colors I was so proud of[00:00:46]
As she sewed she told a story from the bible she had read[00:00:54]
About a coat of many colors Joseph wore and she said[00:01:00]
Perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness[00:01:06]
And I just couldn't wait to wear it[00:01:12]
It's momma blessed it with a kiss[00:01:15]
My coat of many colors that my momma made for me[00:01:20]
Made from only rags but I wore it so proudly[00:01:26]
Well we didn't have much money[00:01:33]
I was rich as I could be[00:01:36]
In my coat of many colors my momma made for me[00:01:38]
So with patches on my britches[00:01:49]
Holes in both my shoes[00:01:53]
In my coat of many colors[00:01:55]
I hurried off to school[00:01:58]
Just to find the others laughing[00:02:01]
And making fun of me[00:02:04]
In my coat of many colors[00:02:07]
My momma made for me[00:02:10]
And oh I couldn't understand it[00:02:15]
For I felt I was rich[00:02:18]
And I told them of the love[00:02:20]
My momma sewed in every stitch[00:02:23]
And I told 'em all the story[00:02:26]
Momma told me while she sewed[00:02:29]
And how my coat of many colors[00:02:32]
Was worth more than all their clothes[00:02:35]
They didn't understand it and I tried to make them see[00:02:40]
One is only poor Only if he choose to be[00:02:46]
And we no have no money[00:02:53]
I was rich as I could be[00:02:56]
In my coat of many colors my momma made for me[00:02:59]
Made just for me[00:03:05]
