Paul McCartney and Wings - Mary Had a Little Lamb (Official Music video) © 1972 Artist : Paul McCartney Song : Mary Had a Little Lamb “Mary Had a Little Lamb“ is a song written by Paul and Linda McCartney and released as a non-album single by the British–American rock band Wings in March 1972. It is based on the traditional nursery rhyme of the same name. At the time, some observers such as Roy Carr and Tony Tyler of New Musical Express presumed the song was recorded by McCartney in response to the BBC ban of his previous single, the political “Give Ireland Back to the Irish“, but McCartney has denied this, saying that it was a sincere effort to write a song for children. In fact, the song was written before “Give Ireland Back to the Irish“, as a demo of the song can be heard during an interview recorded for radio station WRKO in December
