Oh Well
Fleetwood Mac · Then Play On
Can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I aint pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
Now when I talk to God
I know he understands
He said "stick by me and I'll be your guiding hand"
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
I can't sing, I aint pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
Now when I talk to God
I know he understands
He said "stick by me and I'll be your guiding hand"
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
Oh Well - Fleetwood Mac
Released on the 1981 album Then Play On, "Oh Well" stands as a defining track in the evolution of Fleetwood Mac's late-period sound. The song reflects the band's transition from their classic rock era into a more polished, pop-inflected style, featuring the distinctive vocals of Lindsey Buckingham and the lush production characteristic of the era. While the band is perhaps best known for hits like "The Chain" and "Layla," this recording captures a moment of introspection and melodic refinement within their discography. It showcases the group's ability to blend hard rock energy with softer, ballad-like arrangements, cementing their status as a major force in 1980s rock music.
