[Verse 1: Christine McVie]
Oh, daddy
You know you make me cry
How can you love me
I don't understand why
[Refrain: Christine McVie]
Oh, daddy
If I can make you see
If there's been a fool around

If there's been a fool around
It's got to be me
Yes, it's got to be me
[Chorus: Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham]

And I can't walk away from you
Baby, if I tried
[Verse 2: Christine McVie]
Oh, daddy
You soothe me with your smile
You're letting me know
You're the best thing in my life
[Refrain: Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham]
Oh, daddy
If I can make you see
If there's been a fool around
It's got to be me
Yes, it's got to be me
[Outro: Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham]
Yes, it's got to be me
Yes, it's got to be me
Oh Daddy was written by Christine McVie.
Oh Daddy was produced by Ken Caillat & Richard Dashut & Fleetwood Mac.
Fleetwood Mac released Oh Daddy on Fri Feb 04 1977.
Caillat told Music Radar:

‘That’s probably my favorite Christine song of all time,” Nicks confided in the liner notes to the 2013 reissue of Rumours, 'and probably one of the only dark songs she wrote.’ Fleetwood has claimed that the lonely, foreboding ball...
