"Momma Miss America" is an instrumental by Paul McCartney from his debut solo album McCartney released in 1970.[1][2][3]

Recording

The song was recorded completely at McCartney's home in St. John's Wood. McCartney said in 1970: "An instrumental recorded completely at home. Made up as I went along – first a sequence of chords, then a melody on top.[4]

McCartney later said of the song, "Originally it was two pieces, but they ran into each other by accident and became one."[5]
