Coat of Many Colors · аккорды на гитаре · текст песни

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

And how my mamma put those rags to use

There were rags of many Colours and every piece was small

And I didn't have a coat and it was way down in the fall

Mamma sewed the rags together, sewing every piece with love

She made my coat of many Colours that 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 and 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

Although we had no money, I was rich as I could be

In my coat of many Colours my mamma made for me

So with patches on my britches and holes in both my shoes

In my coat of many Colours, I hurried off to school

Just to find the others laughing and making fun of me

In my coat of many Colours that mamma made for me

Well, I didn't understand it for I felt that I was rich

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

I told them all the story mamma told me while she sewed

And how my coat of many Colours

Was worth more than all their clothes.

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

That one is only poor only if they choose to be

It’s true, we had no money but I was rich as I could be

In my coat of many Colours that mamma made for me

…..Made just for me .
