"With a Little Luck" is Wings' #1 (U.S.) single from their 1978 album London Town. The song was written by Paul McCartney in Scotland and recorded on board the boat "Fair Carol" in the Virgin Islands prior to the departure of lead guitarist Jimmy McCulloch and drummer Joe English from Wings. It hit number one in the United States in the spring of 1978.
"With a Little Luck" was also released on Wings Greatest (1978) and the two-disc compilation, Wingspan (2001). There were two versions of the song: the original 5:45 version on London Town, and a DJ Edit, which only runs 3:13.
