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 momma put the rags to use There were rags of many colors and every piece was small And i didn't have a coat and it was way down in the fall Momma sewed the rags together sewing every piece with love she Made my coat of many colors that i was so proud of As she sewed she told a story from the bible she had read About a coat of many colors josheph 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 momma blessed it with a Kiss My coat of many colors that my momma made for me Made only from rags but i wore it so proudly I know we had money but i was rich as i could be in my coat of Many colors My momma made for me So with patches on my britiches holes in both my shoes In my coat of many colors i hurried off to school Just to find the others laughing and a making fun of me In my coat of many colors my momma made for me And oh i couldn't understand for i felt i was rich And i told them all the love my momma sewed in every stich SongtexteAnd i told them all the story momma told me while she sewed And how my coat of many colors was worth more than all their Clothes But they didn't understand and i tried to make them see One is only poor only if they choose to be Now i know we have no money but i was rich as i could be In my coat of many colors momma made for me Made just for me Aus Songtexte Mania
