  • omg, i accidently pushed the dislike button, im sorry. sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, im really sorry,

  • im singing this for a talent show and every time i read the lyrics while im singing i start crying! ) : Am i he only one?

  • @MyFriendsAndU no buddy, u r not the only one

  • I'm 12 years old and i love this song <3

  • sweet memories

  • it was a folktle....i was almost lost!!......dolly is the bestest

  • @mubarak565 Bestest? o- o

  • @Lizascarrysouthman i was just being overwhelmed by the song...or rather story

  • This such a great song!!!!! i <3 This song Dolly Parton is my 1st idol ever!!!!!! i love her God bless u dolly (im not poor im rich because i have family and friends that love me soooooooo much)

  • Seriously its just like the people who hit the dislike button who makes me sad.

    IF YOU CANT DO BETTER YOURSELF THEN DONT SAY ITS NOT GOOD!

    (in my oppinion no one can do better than my biggest idol Dolly Parton, God bless you! <3

  • Cant believe she still has it can you? Me neither. Though if you recieved a gift such as a toy would you care for it when you were 14 like you would when you were 8? No. Would you care for a shirt that you out grown? Not really But Dolly cares for that coat more than anything. Thats why this song reminds me to cherish what little things do.

  • I love this song, because I remenber when we´re childrens, me, my brothers and sisters, we were very rich, the only thing we didn´t have, was money; but we had a loving Mother, her sewed with her beatifull hands and feet, on his singer machine, clothes of many colors for us. I love dolly!!!!!!

  • This song is so true and full of love that I'm just crying, Dolly is amazing, greetings from Italy

  • absolutely love this song!! She is a real inspiration, she was poor as a girl and this should inspire others!! DOLLY I LOVE YOU <3

  • Dolly I LOVE YOU! your best country singer out there and always i grew up with your songs and to all your songs i heard there is story's to all them i wish i could meet u that would be a dream come true Dolly LOVE YOU FOR EVER xxxxxxxxxxxx

  • it makes my dad

  • I have Dolly's book. It's great! She tells all about how her momma sewed her that coat and how when the other kids laughed she ignored them <3 ya Dolly!!

  • I love this song my memaw used to sing it to me.

  • Great song and great story....<3 ya Dolly!

  • dolly Parton tells how families stay together and how others help each other out! you don't see that today. My son's school laughed at my quilting but it keeps things alive

  • This is a beautiful song, as are all Dollys songs!!!

  • i love ths song :)

  • this song is a big part of my life. SO beautiful :]

  • People don't sing about the humbleness of being poor anymore. It's all I - me - mine nowadays. That's probably why much of today's music has no soul anymore.

  • For me it's a new song and I think (and feel) it's amazing song :-)

  • Just got Class her Voice...amazing

  • Aww My momma...

  • lol @ the 2 top comments saying "thumbs up" people come to old songs because they are great, not to sit there and thumbs up ur comments <3

  • Thanks Dolly for making a 38 years old cry and sending him 25years back in time.... love you....

  • I had a coat just like that. Same story. Mine got ruined in a flood, but I'll never forget it. It's funny how some of the smallest things make the biggest impressions on your life.

  • @indiigo151 I had a coat the was a plastic type of fabric, but it was multicolored and I used to wear it to school and sing this song. I got picked on a lot and I told them they were all ignorant :D I was a sassy little grade schooler XD!!!

  • @indiigo151 I got off track with that comment, point was it was warm and it made me happy that my grandma gave it too me, and I'm happy to know I wasn't the only one who had a coat of many colors that gave them love through the years even when they are gone. :)

  • ca me rappele mon tres jeune age quand j'etais au college .merci dolly

  • hi dolly how ar you me just fine but i love you so much

  • i ahve no realation to this song and yet im crying.. is this normal?

  • A good song can be interpreted many ways, i may not be poor but this song speaks to me, it makes me think that mabey that girl who wore the same cloths yesterday might not have much money, or that boy in the corner crying might have a hard life.........Those people usualy are not given a second chance.........LIKE THIS IF YOU THINK ITS TRUE

  • hi dolly parton

    i love you

  • Her voice is so beautiful it makes me cry.

  • i love songs that tell stories Dolly is my most favorite singer in the world thumbs up if she is yours

  • ucze się tej piosenki w szkole

  • I love this song as i heard it now.It touches me as this is a humble and very touchy. i believe this is a snap shot of many peoples' lives. not to mention this melodious and resonating virgin voice. God bless Dolly and the one who posted this song and lyrics for us who could not otherwise have had it.

    Bekalu

  • this song makes me shed tears involuntarily...i don't know why.

  • Money is nice but it isn't the only measure of wealth. It's nice to hear truly talented musicians who could write and perform their own songs and really good songs at that.

  • this is a clean song, i love that lyrics

  • This was Dolly Partons real life. She grew up poor- very poor. Her Daddy couldn't afford to pay Dr. Thomas for delivering her so he gave him a sack of cornmeal. Dolly Parton's Momma made her this coat and when the teaher walked into the room to find kids picki' on Dolly he said "Don't you want to take your coat off and put it in the coatroom?" Dolly looked around the room, looking at everyone who was laughing and snickering at her. Then she said- "No."

  • I love this song! I would sing this all the time when it playedon the radio

  • i wonder about the 9 people disliking this song. One of the best song with real meaning :)

  • This song sounds like the stories of my life and i'm always wanna cry if listened it.. I love you mom !

  • Amazing Song... Love Dolly!!! x Going To See In September :) CANT WAIT xx

  • very nice song

  • even at the age of 11 i realize kids are more fortunate nowadays i wish my momma will make me a coat of many with love in every stitch because kids take to much for granite. and its sad,it really is.

  • @mandiexoxoable i agree 100% even know i take half of my thing for granted :D

  • this is such a cute song :)

  • dolly thanks for this song!!!!

  • 7 people are poor and dont have happiness!! Becuz who could not like this song? What is there not to like about this song!!

  • I am trying to write down the such meaningful words without crying. I can remember the hard times when I was small. If only people would appreciate such wonderful, simple things now. But, oh how things have changed....

  • it always makes me sad when i listen this song :'(

  • love this song!!!!!! she has an awesome and unique voice.

  • i was listening to this song and thought of my dead grandmother and how my mom missed her brought tears to my eyes......

  • My aunt had a book with the lyrics of this, like a little story book. I always remember her reading it to me. This goes out to her!!

  • :) My sisters used to this song to me because I used to own this terrible coat that was red, blue, and yellow with white fur cuffs! But I liked it, so I wore it proudly! Oh..childhood memories!

  • GAAH! this songs makes me cry...its sooo touching because I have had an experience with a past friend how we had to help them out and we gave an old family friend a very old jacket and she loved it soo much and as I watched her go to the bus stop, her friend laughed at her and she told her the story about it and it was like it didn't even phase her that she was being made fun of. She is a great little kid and I love her a lot.

  • I can't ever listen to this song without getting teary-eyed

  • When I sing this to myself I actually like to put papa instead of momma because she abandoned me. Although me and my father do not get along, he at least has the common decency to put a roof over my head.

The day that she died i went back home and brought back the cd that i gave here that had this song on it and played it one more time for her. Now that she's gone i listen to it more than i did before.This song is definitely something that will stay with me forever.
