We're keeping the kingdom free.

As an archduke falls and the battle horn calls, our lives would never be the same

We were looking down barrel of a gun

Now the war has come and the battle has begun, we are desperate and overrun

To the war drum we'll be marching until it's done.

Lead the way, we will follow into the fray

We will hold the line we will not be led astray.

For king and for country, we are flooding the river

Our stand at yser will be, the end of the race to the sea

The last piece of belgium is free, we're keeping a sliver

A cog in the war machine, october of 1914.

As our foe draws forth we are moving on north, we will never let them have it all

There's a price for freedom paid by belgiums sons

They may take our towns, they may conquer our grounds we'll defend the nation and the crown

We'll uphold our independence with our guns.

All the way, on to triumph or to judgement day

We will follow and we will not be led astray.

For king and for country, we are flooding the river

Our stand at yser will be, the end of the race to the sea

The last piece of belgium is free, we're keeping a sliver

A cog in the war machine, october of 1914.

See a king and a soldier, fighting shoulder to shoulder

See a king and a soldier, fighting shoulder to shoulder

He overruled his commanders, he made a last stand in flanders

We see our king and a soldier, they're fighting shoulder to shoulder

To keep the last piece of belgium free.

All the way, on to triumph or to judgement day

We will follow and we will not be led astray.

For king and for country, we are flooding the river

Our stand at yser will be, the end of the race to the sea

The last piece of belgium is free, we're keeping a sliver

A cog in the war machine, october of 1914

For king and for country, we are flooding the river

Our stand at yser will be, the end of the race to the sea

We're free

For king and for country we are flooding the river

No more of our country lost, the line will be held at all cost.
