Miranda Lambert, 'Heart Like Mine' -- New Song

Columbia Nashville

Country star Miranda Lambert defends her rebel tendencies on the new song 'Heart Like Mine,' the fifth single from her award-winning 'Revolution' album.

"I ain't the kind you take home to Mama," Lambert warns right away on the mid-tempo track, which opens with gentle acoustic and slide guitars. Lambert doesn't apologize for smoking cigarettes, even though "Christian folks" want her to quit:

"Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine / And I bet we'd get along just fine / He could calm a storm and heal the blind / And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine."

The second half of the song takes on more of a rocking edge with a brief electric guitar solo. Lambert brags about drinking alcohol, getting tattoos and pursuing an artistic career instead of an intellectual one, while confidently asserting that Jesus wouldn't judge her.

'Revolution' is the gift that keeps on giving for Lambert, having already captured Album of the Year honors at both the CMA Awards and the ACM Awards in 2010. Since its release in 2009, the record has produced hits 'Dead Flowers, 'White Liar,' 'The House That Built Me' and 'Only Prettier.'

Check out 'Heart Like Mine' on AOL Radio's New Country First station.
