Under Heavy Fire - Crystallion

The sound of guns

Shall draw you near

No way, my orders have been clear

Wait for them to come, they will be crushed

No mercy from our side

Withdrawing to the sunken lane for now

Cuirassiers are caught it seems the enemy is gaining ground

Can’t give in to Somerset’s brigade

Under heavy fire, our prospects dire

Answer charge by a counter-attack

All my infantry, proudly fight for me

Must be quick or our foes will prevail

See their retreat

Our steel they’ll meet

Right now our cavalry we need

Squares to be protected

Our artillery will do the rest

Trampling hooves won’t do us any harm

The French they are not close enough

The Dutch are fighting on our side

At Mont St Jean ridge they’re bound to fall

Under heavy fire, our prospects dire

Answer charge by a counter-attack

All my infantry, proudly fight for me

Must be quick or our foes will prevail
