Miranda Lambert has found a co-songwriter in her husband, Brendan McLoughlin. The former NYC policeman, 32, seems to be tracing his path from cop to country music by collaborating with his Grammy Award-winning country singer wife on her song D*mmit Randy. Per intel by an In Touch Weekly source, McLoughlin could bank a big payout if the song becomes as popular as most Miranda Lambert songs tend to become.

“Brendan had ideas for songs before, but Miranda finally invited him in as a full songwriting partner,” the insider told the aforementioned publication in an article published Tuesday, July 16. “If the song makes it to No. 1, as most of Miranda’s songs do, Brendan could pocket $200,000 or more in royalties!” the tipster weighed in, adding of the former cop that he is too young to retire and just live off Miranda’s paycheck. “He wants a career too.”

Miranda debuted the song at a June 29 concert in Midland, Texas!
