Coat of Many Colors (In the Style of Dolly Parton) (Demo Vocal Version) - ProSource Karaoke

Back through the years I go wondering once again

Back to the seasons of my youth

I recall a box of rags someone gave us

How my momma put those rags to use

There were rags of many colors every piece was small

And I didn't have a coat it was late in the fall

Momma sewed the rags together she sewed every piece with love

She made my coat of many colors I was so proud of

As she sewed she told a story from the bible she had read

About a coat of many colors Joseph wore and she said

Perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness

And I just couldn't wait to wear it

It's momma blessed it with a kiss

My coat of many colors that my momma made for me

Made from only rags but I wore it so proudly

Well we didn't have much money

I was rich as I could be

In my coat of many colors my momma made for me

So with patches on my britches holes in both my shoes

In my coat of many colors I hurried off to school

Just to find the others laughing and making fun of me

And my coat of many colors my momma made for me

And oh I couldn't understand that 'cause I thought I was rich

And then I told them of the love my momma sewed in every stitch

And I told 'em all the story momma told me while she sewed

And why my coat of many colors was worth more than all their clothes

They didn't understand it and I tried to make them see

One is only poor only if you choose to be

It is true we had no money but I was rich as I could be

In my coat of many colors momma made for me

Made just for me
