"Soily" is a song written by Paul McCartney in 1971. It was included in the setlist of his band Wings during their 1972 tour of Europe and their 1973 tour of Britain. In 1973 it was the first song of the set. It was then reworked and a faster, heavier version was played during the Wings Over the World tour, 1975–76. In the British leg of this tour, it ended the rock part of the set, after which Wings played a number of acoustic songs before returning to electric music. From the Australian leg (November 1975) up to the end of the tour (October 1976), "Soily" served as an encore although it was not played during every concert.
