Coat of Many Colors Lyrics

Lyric discussion by SLYcrafts 

Cover art for Coat of Many Colors lyrics by Dolly Parton

~ I love this song dearly!!! I listened to Dolly as a Child and actually sang this song a lot while making my son all his homemade shirts, carefully making sure each horseshoe snap was the right side up and put the heart shaped patches on his jeans. One would never know the sacrifices made for him how he acts now as a 'man'. If one didn't know any better they'd think he was born with a gold spoon in his mouth. I don't understand why one can not be proud of all the "labor of love" than the make believe of pretending you came from the 'upper crust'.

Like Dolly sings so beautifully "I couldn't understand it", now I can't understand it.

To bad, so sad that some take for granted all the love given in those every stitches that some never even had the chance to receive.

Sly ~
