paroles de chanson Coat Of Many Colors (Live) - Demi Lee Moore

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
How my momma put those rags to use

There were rags of many colors
Some of them were small
I didn't have a coat
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 the 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"
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

Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
That momma made for me

So with patches on my britches
And holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
Well, I hurried off to school

Just to find the others laughin'
And making fun of me
In my coat of many colors
That momma made for me

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 them all the stories
Momma told me while she sewed
How my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes

But they couldn't understand it
And I tried to make them see
One is only poor
Only if one choose to be

Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
That momma made for me

Although we had no money
Well, I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
That momma made for me
