Coat Of Many Colors - The Oak Ridge Boys[00:00:00]
Back through the years I go wondering once again[00:00:07]
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]
Momma sewed the rags together she sewed every piece with love[00:00:40]
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[00:00:53]
About a coat of many colors Joseph wore and she said[00:00:59]
Perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness[00:01:05]
And I just couldn't wait to wear[00:01:10]
Momma blessed it with a kiss[00:01:13]
My coat of many colors that my momma made for me[00:01:17]
Made from only rags but I wore it so proudly[00:01:24]
Although we had no money[00:01:30]
I was rich as I could be[00:01:33]
In my coat of many colors my momma made for me[00:01:36]
So with patches on my britches[00:01:46]
Holes in both my shoes[00:01:49]
In my coat of many colors[00:01:51]
I hurried off to school[00:01:55]
Just to find the others laughing[00:01:57]
And making fun of me[00:01:59]
In my coat of many colors[00:02:03]
My momma made for me[00:02:06]
And oh I couldn't understand it[00:02:10]
For I felt I was rich[00:02:13]
And I told them of the love[00:02:16]
My momma sewed in every stitch[00:02:18]
And I told more all the story[00:02:22]
Momma told me while she sewed[00:02:25]
And how my coat of many colors[00:02:27]
Was worth more than all their clothes[00:02:30]
But they didn't understand it[00:02:34]
And I tried to make them see[00:02:37]
That one is only poor[00:02:41]
Only if they choose to be[00:02:43]
Now I know we had no money[00:02:47]
But I was rich as I could be[00:02:50]
In my coat of many colors[00:02:53]
My momma made for me[00:02:56]
Just for me[00:03:00]
