Coat of Many Colors - 2007 Remaster

Back through the years I go wondering once again
 Back to the seasons of my youth
 I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
 And how my mamma put these rags to use
 There were rags of many colours, every piece was small
 And I didn't have a coat, it was way down in the fall
 Mamma sewed the rags together, she sewed ever piece with love
 She made my coat of many colours, I was so proud of
 As she sewed she told the story from the bible she had read
 About a coat of many colours, Joseph wore and then she said
 Perhaps this coat will bring you, good luck and happiness
 And I just couldn't wait to wear it, mamma blessed it with a kiss
 My coat of many colours that my mamma made for me
 Made from only rags, but I wore it so proudly
 Though we didn't have much money, I was rich as I could be
 In my coat of many colours, my mamma made for me
 Instrumental
 So with patches on my breaches, holes in both my shoes
 In my coat of many colours, well I started off to school
 Just to find the children laughing and makin' fun of me
 In my coat of many colours, my mamma made for me
 Now I didn't understand it, for I felt that I was rich
 And I told them of the love my mamma sewed in ever stitch
 I told them all about the story, mamma told me while she sewed
 and my coat of many colours is worth more than all of their clothes
 They didn't under stand it and I tried to make them see
 That one is only poor only if they choose to be
 Though we didn't have much money, I was rich as I could be
 In my coat of many colours, my mamma made for me
 In my coat of many colours, my mamma made, just for meeeee
