Beneath The Banner Of The Iron Duke

Under the cover of a darkening day
The allies halt their retreat
On the ridge of Mont Saint Jean
Tomorrow the battle will be fought!

The cavalry guard the last of the infantry
Allied artillery lines the ridge
The stalemate at Quatre bras
Must not be made to look a defeat

this is the day, this is the place, this is where we will stand, Seventh Coalition against Napoleon
With no retreat and no respite we stand under the Iron Duke we will win the Battle of Waterloo

With the dawn near 200,000 men

begin to rise
soaked and blue with the cold
for the battle they prepare

The allies form into their squares
clutching their rifles tight
if the calvary see them flinch
the battle will be lost

this is the day, this is the place, this is where we will stand, Seventh Coalition against Napoleon
With no retreat and no respite we stand under the Iron Duke we will win the Battle of Waterloo
