Twenty some odd years ago,
A drunkard down in Memphis.
Lost a month of life and labor.
To the county jail.
Just because he asked a little
Green eyed girl a question.
And offered her a nickle's 
worth of candy if she'd tell.
(4)
A year and some odd days ago,
An old man died in Memphis,
Just another wayward soul,
The county had to claim.
Inside the olds mans coat
They found a ragged letter,
It said he had a daughter
and her eyes were emerald green.
(repeat 2)

I think the tab is correct, but the last line in the last verse is "You have a daughter and her eyes are Wilson Green"

Goes
Inside the old man's ragged coat they found a faded letter..That said "You have a daughter and her eyes are Wilson green."
Not...the old man's coat they found a ragged letter
