French Drinking Song

[Gissing]

Can anyone provide the exact lyrics for a French drinking song which starts 'Attention', refers to the French cavalry, and which involves, with each verse, louder and louder banging on the table (as if the cavalry is getting closer and closer)?

Possibly you mean "La Bataille de Reichshoffen", which you can see various versions of on Youtube --- I hope that helps!
