“Kerosene” was the title song & third single released from Miranda Lambert’s 2005 debut album.

Even though Miranda wrote the song, she gave co-writer’s credit to singer Steve Earle after listeners noticed a similarity to his song “I Feel All Right”.

In an interview, she stated that she unconsciously copied the melody and structure of the song, saying:

I didn’t purposefully plagiarize his song, but unconsciously I copied it almost exactly. I guess I’d listened to it so much that I just kind of had it in there

The song became a hit for Miranda, peaking at #61 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #15 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart in 2005.
