George Thomas Morgan- Hello Pretty Lady- Caribbean Cruise 2010 -14-5-2010

Hello pretty lady I'm wondering why
You sit there alone with a tear in your eye
You're drinking and thinking of someone it seems
I'm sure he has hurt you and shattered your dreams

But don't cry pretty lady I'm foot loose and free
And I'm as much lover as you'll ever see
We'll go to a place where it's quiet and dim
And I'll make forget all those thoughts about him

What's that pretty lady you're not really sad
That tear in your eye only means that you're glad
He's coming to take you away in his arms
And his lips along will explore all your charms
[ steel ]
So long pretty lady there's no room for me
In a world that's as happy as your seems to to be
I'll think of you often and recall with a sigh
That you're not for me pretty lady goodbye
George Thomas Morgan (June 28, 1924July 7, 1975) was a mid-20th century American country music singer. He is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and a former member of the Grand Ole Opry.
Morgan was born to Zachariah "Zach" Morgan and Ethel Turner in Waverly, Tennessee, but was raised in Barberton, Ohio. He was, along with a few other contemporaries (most notably Eddy Arnold and Jim Reeves), referred to as a "country crooner;" his singing style being more similar to that of Bing Crosby or Perry Como than that of Ernest Tubb or Lefty Frizzell.
Morgan was a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1948, and is best remembered for the Columbia Records song "Candy Kisses", which was a number one hit on the Billboard country music charts for three weeks in 1949. He also had several hits based on a "rose" theme: "Room Full Of Roses", "Red Roses For A Blue Lady", and "Red Roses From The Blue Side Of Town". In the early 1950s he hosted a 15-minute radio program syndicated nationally by RadiOzark Enterprises in Springfield, Missouri.
In 1974, Morgan was the last person to sing on the stage of the Ryman Auditorium before the Grand Ole Opry moved to the new Grand Ole Opry House. A week later he was the first to sing on stage at the new Opry House.
He died in 1975 of a heart attack after undergoing open heart surgery and was interred in the Spring Hill Cemetery in Madison, Tennessee.
His daughter, country music singer Lorrie Morgan, released two songs as duets with her late father dubbed in: "I'm Completely Satisfied" (1979) and "From This Moment On" (2006).
