After releasing Wranglers and Dammit Randy over the past few weeks, Miranda Lambert, on Wednesday, July 24, released a third single titled Alimony. The track, however, accompanied a bigger announcement.
The singer has set a release date, title, and tracklist for her upcoming album under a new deal with Republic Records. Titled Postcards From Texas, the 14-track, self-produced LP by Lambert and her frequent collaborator, friend, and fellow Texan Jon Randall, arrives on September 13.

Miranda Lambert releases Alimony, a third single from her upcoming album — Is the song title a hint?
The song was co-penned by Lambert and two of country music’s most in-demand writers, Shane McAnally and Natalie Hemby. The trio also worked together on Looking Back on Luckenbach, another song listed on Lambert’s Postcards From Texas.
Alimony is a classic country song with abundant Texas lingo. In the song, Lambert playfully warns her partner (we sincerely hope not her real one): If “You start steppin’ out / Only one thing can console me / If you're gonna leave me in San Antone / Remember the alimony.”
About the composing process of the song, Lambert said in a press statement yesterday, “My parents were private investigators in Dallas, Texas, who worked a ton of divorce cases in the high-flauntin’ parts of town, so this wasn't hard to write. I've heard about it my whole life.”
