Somebody's Gonna Pay is the second studio album by American professional wrestler and country singer Mickie James.

A bonus track on the album, "Hardcore Country", served as James' entrance music during her time in Impact Wrestling, where she was a multi-time world champion.

Originally performed by Jamie Hartford in a traditional country style, James was initially unsure about recording the song.

However, Field suggested modernizing it with additional guitars to give it a more rock-oriented sound, which ultimately led to the song becoming the album's title track.
