lirik lagu ilse delange - coat of many colors

[verse 1]
back through the years i go wandering once again
back to the seasons of my youth
i recall a box of rags that someone gave us
and how my mama put the rags to use

[verse 2]
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
mama sewed the rags together, sewing every piece with love
she made my coat of many colors that i was so proud of

[verse 3]
as she sewed, she told a story from the bible she had rеad
about a coat of many colors joseph wore and then shе said
“perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness”
and i just couldn’t wait to wear it and mama blessed it with a kiss

[chorus]
my coat of many colors that my mama 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 colors my mama made for me

[verse 4]
so with patches on my britches and 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 mama made for me
[verse 5]
and, oh, i couldn’t understand it, for i felt i was rich
and i told ’em of the love my mama sewed in every stitch
and i told ’em of the story mama told me while she sewed
and how my coat of many colors was worth more than all their clothes

[chorus]
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 mama made for me
made just for me
