    I had my coat of many colors back in 1943/44 winter. mum had made it out of an old horse blanket and had to use parts of an skirt and all sorts of buttons. Man was I proud to wear that coat. It was big and warm and made up as a blanket at night for my little twin sisters, than only 2 years old. We lived in Holland than during wartime. Mum sure knew how to get us through hard times.

      i would love to have been there an known what it felt like to have a coat stitched from love like yours. i had an apron made from the skirt of a dress that my great grandmother made for my grandma when she was 8 or 9. i still have it tho it doesnt fit. dolly was and is one of my heros when it comes to music about love and life.

    We grew up poor, but the kids in the family never knew we were. We were rich in love. My mom sewed all of our clothes so this resonates deeply. One time my sister came home from school and said she had learned that we were low class. My mom told her no, we're poor, there's a difference. I am so lucky to have been born in this family, poor in money, but rich in everything else.

    My mother was a single mother, every article of clothing we ever wore was from the thrift shop. I always thought I looked cute. I was bullied every day, but in my heart, I knew that I was beautiful and that it didn't matter that my clothes were worn. Every time I listen to this song I cry, happy and proud tears 💖🥰💖 Thank you, Mama, for teaching me what matters ❤❤❤

      It's her confidence. It's her REALNESS about her coat of many colors, and she's kind of like "fuck you" I was as rich as I could be....Dolly Parton is probably some kind of MBTI FP. I'm thinking IXFP or ENxFP.

      My late mother, born into hard circumstances in 1938, could not listen to this song without crying. She worshiped her late Mom and her Mom did just as Dolly's had. She also told her that they were NEVER POOR, they just didn't have any money. Words like that build character. Glad those two beautiful and gentle women are together again.

    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
    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
    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 momma made for me
    And oh, I couldn't understand it
    For I felt I was rich
    And I told 'em 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

    I have a quilt of many colors, made from my Great Grandpa's old suits and various scraps of used fabrics they could no longer use. It's probably about 70 years old by now. But that collaboration of old rags and material is my most valuable possession. Every stitch of that quilt has stories and memories of the good times and the hard times of my family, many of them gone now. I don't know what each piece was used for before being retired to the quilt. But being able to touch it and think of the stories I've been told about their lives together makes me feel like those days live on, with me. So I really appreciate the meaning of this song.

Having a baby girl myself, I strive to be everything I always wanted from a mother. My grandmother raised me for a few years, and she used to sew clothes for me by hand. And I know what it is to be ridiculed because of what you wore as a child. So many lessons from this fantastic song/book that I want to share with my children. Thank you, Dolly, for sharing with me and my family the lessons that your mother taught you.

    I went to elementary school with a little girl who reminds me very much of the character in this song. Although it was the early 1960s, my classmate's family still lived in the old traditional Appalachian way & they were very poor. They didn't have TV or radio, but they did have a guitar & a banjo & they knew all the old songs that originated in the Scottish/English borderlands. Patty Littleton was my friends name & Patty would sing those old songs in a hauntingly pure voice that would raise the hair on the back of your neck. Patty's family moved away when we were in the sixth grade & I never saw her again, but I will never forget that beautiful child & I will always wonder what became of her.
    I am now 68 years old & this all happened more than a half century ago. I loved that girl, but I was too young & bashful to tell her so. Here's to you, Patty. I still love you.

    This song touches me, I remember being bullied by the clothes I had when I was a kid. Hearing this song made me appreciate everything my mom gave me when I was a kid and now I hope I’ll make her proud and repay her for the love she gave me.

    When I was about 5 or 6 I had a digital encyclopedia and my favourite section was the music section that would explain different genres. This song was listed under country and i fell in love with the little snippet they had. I only remembered how much I loved this song recently. I'm 23 now. Thank you Dolly for making such a special song.

    “Dolly Parton: Here I am” brought me here. That said, my mom back home made blankets from little rags she did not want to discard and throw away. I remember my brother made fun at by a little school friend asking if we were poor (we were actually middle class). This song just made me cry... mom is the most caring and loving person on Earth. I did not know Dolly’s music, but this documentary made me a fan.

    you Americans need to wake up every single day and remember that this woman is your national treasure. Her voice, heart and soul are so pure and kind.

    This song really touched my heart. We were very poor growing up. I was born in the 70's. My Mom embroidered a print on a pillow case, with flowers and my name on it, and it was my only present I received for Christmas that year. I had an old beat up coat my Mom made. She made all my clothes on her sewing machine. I was as proud as I could be, but the kids made fun of me. God blessed us tho. Dolly Pardon is very wealthy now. I have what I need. Our Mothers had the Bible that they read regularly. My Mom also read the Bible to me and took me to Christian Church regularly. I can really relate to this song. Love is what counts!
