Baris 5:
Tidak jelas kapan ''British Grenadiers'' muncul, tapi itu sudah dikenal setidaknya sejak abad ke-17.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Walker|first1=Ernest|title=A History of Music in England|date=1907|publisher=Forgotten Books|isbn=1334045305}}</ref> Istilah "Grenadiers" merujuk kepada seluruh pasukan grenadier, bukan hanya Garda Grenadier saja. Nada lagu ini diperkenalkan kepada militer Inggris selama pemerintahan [[William III dari Inggris|William III]] (1689-1702).<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Hart|first1=Ernest|title=British Regimental Marches|journal=The Musical Quarterly|date=October 1918|volume=4|issue=4|page=584|jstor=737882}}</ref>
''British Grenadiers'' kemudian menjadi populer di Britania Raya hingga Amerika Utara selama dan setelah abad ke-18. Kini, mars legendaris ini sering dimainkan terutama ketika resimen pengarak panji berbaris maju dalam upacara tahunan ''Trooping the Colour'' (parade hari ulang tahun resmi [[Monarki Britania Raya|raja Inggris]]) di [[London]].<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/theroyalfamily/7823556/Trooping-of-Colour-marks-Queens-Official-Birthday.html "Trooping of Colour marks Queen's Official Birthday"].

Teks lirik di bawah ini kemungkinan berasal dari Perang Suksesi Spanyol (1702-1713).
{{quote|<poem>Some talk of Alexander, and some of Hercules
Of Hector and Lysander, and such great names as these.
But of all the world's brave heroes, there's none that can compare.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers.
Whene'er we are commanded to storm the palisades,
Our leaders march with fusees, and we with hand grenades.
We throw them from the glacis, about the enemies' ears.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, for the British Grenadiers.
Then let us fill a bumper, and drink a health of those
Who carry caps and pouches, and wear the loopèd clothes.
May they and their commanders live happy all their years.
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, for the British Grenadiers.</poem>}}
