Listen to Miranda Lambert’s Free-Spirited New Song, “Highway Vagabond”—as an Added Bonus Miranda Rides a Horse

Today (Nov. 4), Miranda Lambert shared the third song, “Highway Vagabond,” from her upcoming two-disc album, The Weight of These Wings, which is set to drop on Nov. 18.

The new free-spirited tune was penned by Luke Dick, Natalie Hemby and Shane McAnally and is featured as the second track on disc one, The Nerve. Miranda used the track title as the moniker for her upcoming Highway Vagabond Tour that kicks off in January with Aubrie Sellers and Old Dominion.

Check out the new gypsy-souled ditty below.

As an added bonus, we’ve also got a picture of Miranda riding a horse. Why?

Because a horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a horse of course,
That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Ms. Leiani.

Actually, Miranda posted the pic on her Instagram account with a lengthy write-up about the power of words.

Every now and then I decide to re-join the world of social media and post something really personal. Not promoting anyone or anything. Not selling a better version of myself to anyone or trying to look cool like we all do all the time. Just a picture that either I or someone I know and care about took the time to take and see the beauty in. This is one of those moments that im proud of. My friend Tommy snapped it on a trail ride on his phone at golden hour on the farm in TN. What a blessing. I’m wearing yoga pants and no makeup and im on the back of my beloved Leiani. A Gypsy Vanner horse. . But… Last night I was all dolled up and “out on the town” with my sweet man at the CMA awards in Nashville. I was excited about the night and posted a picture. Just now when I looked I realized so many comments were judgmental and negative. Cowardly people hiding behind a keyboard or a cell phone writing their useless comments about our eyes and clothes and body language. What a bunch of bull shit. Thank y’all for reminding me why I read books , write songs, and spend most of my time with animals and people I trust and love. And one last thing….. “Words are things. You must be careful, careful about calling people out of their names, using racial pejoratives and sexual pejoratives and all that ignorance. Don’t do that. Some day we’ll be able to measure the power of words. I think they are things. They get on the walls. They get in your wallpaper. They get in your rugs, in your upholstery, and your clothes, and finally in to you.” Maya Angelou
