Mary Had a Little Lamb est une chanson de Paul McCartney et les Wings écrite par Paul et Linda McCartney en 1972 et parue en single. Cette chanson enfantine (« Mary avait un petit agneau ») est souvent considérée comme un pied de nez à la BBC qui avait censuré le single précédent, le très engagé Give Ireland Back to the Irish. Cependant, McCartney s'en est depuis défendu.

Au Royaume-Uni, la chanson a cependant séduit suffisamment le public pour se hisser en 9e place des charts. Aux États-Unis, et malgré une mise en avant de la face B (Little Woman Love), plus commerciale, le single n'est monté qu'en 28e position. La chanson a finalement été publiée sur album en piste bonus de Wild Life lors de sa réédition en 1993.
