Coat of Many Colors

Coat Of Many Colours(Complete version originally performed by Shania Twain And Alison Kraus And Union Station) - Various Artists (歐美群星)

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

How my momma put those rags to use

There were rags of many colors every piece was small

And I didn't have a coat it was late in the fall

Sewed the rags together she sewed every piece with love

She made my coat of many colors 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 she said

Perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness

And I just couldn't wait to wear it

It's momma blessed it with a kiss

My coat of many colors that my momma made for me

Made from only rags but I wore it so proudly

Well we didn't have much 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

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

One is only poor Only if he choose to be

And we no have no money

I was rich as I could be

In my coat of many colors my momma made for me

Made just for me
