Since we're among matlows, does anyone know anything about this? We are the boys of the old RAINBOW We are the boys to cut a shine. We spend our tanners, We mind our manners, We are respected wherever we go. As we're walking down Esquimalt Road Doors and windows opened wide We can dance and we can sing We can do the highland fling For we are the RAINBOW Boys! HMCS Rainbow was one half of the Canadian Navy in the years before WW1. The BC words given here are I suspect a parody or reworking of a British original. Does anyone know of such a song?
