If my ma'am was fighting
Some unholy war
I would be behind her
Straight shook up beside her
With strength she didn't know
It's you I'm fighting for
She can't lose with me in tow
I refuse to let her go
At her side and drunk on pride
We wait for the blow
We put it in writing
But who you writing for
Just us on kitchen floor
Justice done,
Reciting my stomach standing still
Like you're reading my will
She still stands in spite of what her scars say
I'll battle till this bitter finale
Just me, my dignity and this guitar case
Yes my ma'am is fighting some unholy war
And I will stand beside you
Who you fighting for
B - I would have died too
I'd of liked to
If my ma'am was fighting
Some unholy war

No. That's not it. B MIGHT stand for Blake, brother or boy.
Found the lyrics:
If my man was fighting
Some unholy war
I would be behind him
Straight shook up beside him
With strength he didn't know
It's you I'm fighting for
> He can't lose with me in tow
I refuse to let him go
At his side and drunk on pride
We wait for the blow

But who you writing for
Just us on kitchen floor

She said it at a gig. Shepperd's Bush perhaps?
And she said she never quite got it to sound the way she wanted.

Yes! I adore her explanation about how it should sound like a symphony as it took over a year to get complete and that it's not that good... and I quite agree! The live version pisses from a height on the recording. It should be slower as it was on Shepperd's Bush, absolutely amazing. If she hadn't been that drunk it'd have been the best concert ever.
