Miranda Lambert is ready to perform again.

The 40-year-old country star announced that her new 14-track album Postcards From Texas will be released on Friday, September 13th.

In parallel with the album announcement, Lambert introduced her latest single, the bluesy divorce anthem “Alimony.”

“I called this lawyer in Dallas who lives in this palace. So I know he can win well when you think you're missing something,” she boasts on the track.

For the song, the “Drunk” singer knew she wanted “a shuffle.”

“Everyone loves a shuffle,” Lambert said in a press release.

She added: “My parents were private investigators in Dallas, Texas, who handled a lot of divorce cases in high-profile parts of the city, so it wasn't hard to write this. I had heard about it my whole life.”

“We intentionally used every Texas metaphor we could think of; we wanted to take some shit and put some humor back into it. “I'm with his mother,” Lambert said.

In May, the “Wranglers” star told PEOPLE that her next album would be “very country.”

“I made this record in Texas. I hadn’t made an album in Texas since I was 18,” Lambert said. “I went to Arlyn Studios in Austin, and with Jon Randall, my best friend and co-writer and co-producer, we worked together a lot.”

She continued, “I just came back to Texas to make it feel really right for this new season and this new chapter. I signed with Republic Records… and this new team just gave me so much fire and inspiration because that's all the music with them.”

Lambert gave a first taste of her upcoming album with “Wranglers” in May.

Postcards From Texas will be her first new solo music since the release of Palomino in 2022.
