Текст песни Dolly Parton - Coat Of Many Colors
Dolly Parton - Coat Of Many Colors слова песни
Back through the years
I go wonderin` 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
Every piece was small
And I didn`t have a coat
And it was way down in the fall
Momma sewed the rags together
Sewin` 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
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 momma blessed it with a kiss
Chorus:
My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no 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
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
And oh I couldn`t understand it
For I felt I was rich
And 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 how my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes
But they didn`t understand it
And I tried to make them see
That one is only poor
Only if they choose to be
Now I know we had no money
But I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
Made just for me
