a little gem from Wings here....
never included on any Wings or Macca compilation set, got banned by the BBC,thus didnt sell very well, so its a bit of what you might call a 'rarity'
from Paul McCartney i guess....
has a political message...was Paul trying to emulate John with a social conscience in 1972????
