Tompall & the Glaser Brothers were an American country music group composed of three brothers: Chuck (Charles Vernon Glaser) February 27, 1936, Jim (James William Glaser) December 16, 1937, and Tompall (Thomas Paul Glaser) September 3, 1933 - August 13, 2013. The trio were the sons of Alice Marie Harriet Davis Glaser and Louis Nicholas Glaser of Spalding, Nebraska. The Glaser Brothers started singing together at country fairs and contests in and around the Spalding area when they were preteens. In 1957 the group got their big break when they appeared on the Arthur Godfrey's Talent Show and attracted the attention of several well known country stars, including Marty Robbins. Marty quickly signed them as backup singers on his albums and as solo artists on his record label. The brother's first single Five Penny Nickel, was released in 1958 on Robbin's Records
Tompall And The Glaser Brothers Feelin' The Weight Of My Chains lyrics
I nearly made it all the way to work this morning
Then I changed my mind
There's an empty feeling in my soul
That's crying for a lifetime of marking time
I don't know if it's too late to find success
Or if my life can take the change
But I'm not getting any younger
And I'm feeling the weight of my chains
My woman waits at home for me inside
The safety of an aging dream
She goes on believing in some
Promises that she ain't never seen
And it would break her heart if she knew how
My thoughts are tortured by the strain
God knows that I love her
I'm just feeling the weight of my chains
I'm not looking for that pot of gold beyond
Some faded rainbow in the sky
I'm just trying hard to feed a hungry dream
That's trying hard to stay alive
But sometime I feel like giving up
When all my efforts seem in vain
But somehow I'll keep on trying
I'm just feeling the weight of my chains
Lord knows I'll keep on trying
I'm just feeling the weight of my chains
