We used to play Coat of Many Colors a lot in my house when I was a kid.

My coat of many colors

That my mama made for me

Made only from rags

But I wore it so proudly

Although we had no money

Well, I was rich as I could be

In my coat of many colors

My mama made for me

Sierra Ferrell does a pretty good rendition of that. Its actually nice to know that Dolly got to hear/see/meet Sierra.. One of a few who might be able to haul a chunk of Dolly's influence forward.

    Emmylou Harris does a great one also.

Brandi Carlile and I'm With Her just covered this at their stadium concert in Madison, WI last night. Eerie.

  • TBF, there are probably 100s of Dolly covers being done nightly. I just played Do I Ever Cross Your Mind a few nights ago with my bar band.
