[00:05.79]Back through the years
[00:07.76]I go wonderin' once again
[00:11.56]Back to the seasons of my youth
[00:16.17]I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
[00:21.98]And how my momma put the rags to use
[00:27.34]There were rags of many colors
[00:31.06]Every piece was small
[00:33.31]And I didn't have a coat
[00:35.79]And it was way down in the fall
[00:38.91]Momma sewed the rags together
[00:41.68]Sewin' every piece with love
[00:44.31]She made my coat of many colors
[00:47.86]That I was so proud of
[00:51.64]As she sewed  she told a story
[00:54.51]From the bible  she had read
[00:57.25]About a coat of many colors
[01:00.12]Joseph wore and then she said
[01:03.30]Perhaps this coat will bring you
[01:05.82]Good luck and happiness
[01:08.43]And I just couldn't wait to wear it
[01:11.71]And momma blessed it with a kiss
[01:15.93]My coat of many colors
[01:18.31]That my momma made for me
[01:21.75]Made only from rags
[01:24.26]But I wore it so proudly
[01:28.40]Although we had no money
[01:31.28]I was rich as I could be
[01:33.92]In my coat of many colors
[01:37.14]My momma made for me
[01:43.62]So with patches on my britches
[01:46.95]Holes in both my shoes
[01:49.43]In my coat of many colors
[01:52.19]I hurried off to school
[01:54.95]Just to find the others laughing
[01:57.76]And making fun of me
[02:00.53]In my coat of many colors
[02:03.57]My momma made for me
[02:07.04]And oh I couldn't understand it
[02:10.53]For I felt I was rich
[02:12.96]And I told them of the love
[02:15.38]My momma sewed in every stitch
[02:18.62]And I told em all the story
[02:21.33]Momma told me while she sewed
[02:23.90]And how my coat of many colors
[02:26.96]Was worth more than all their clothes
[02:31.17]But they didn't understand it
[02:33.90]And I tried to make them see
[02:37.15]That one is only poor
[02:39.65]Only if they choose to be
[02:43.67]Now I know we had no money
[02:46.43]But I was rich as I could be
[02:49.20]In my coat of many colors
[02:52.34]My momma made for me
[02:56.00]Made just for me
