Winehouse promises her undying commitment to her partner Blake Fielder-Civil in “Some Unholy War,” which she revealed onstage at Glastonbury 2008 was the first song she wrote about him. She also added that, upon writing the song:
I didn’t even know what it was about – and I still don’t! It’s a work...
[Verse 1]
If my man was fightin' some unholy war
I would be behind him
Straight shook up beside him with strength
He didn't know, it's you I'm fightin' for
He can't lose with me in tow (With me in tow)
I refuse to let him go (To let him go)

[Verse 2]
We put it in writin', but who you writin' for?
Just us on kitchen floor
Justice done, recitin', my stomach standin' still

And I'll battle 'til this bitter finale (Bitter finale)
Just me, my dignity
And this guitar case, woah, woah
[Outro]
Yes, yes, my man's fightin' some unholy war
And I will stand beside you
But who you dyin' for?
B, I would have died, too, I'd like to
If my man was fightin' some unholy war
Yeah, if my man was fightin'
