Cold Like This Songtext
von The Rumjacks

I′ve never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this

The winds will blow and the winds will roar
The gulls are frozen to the shore
And If I die in the Boston snow
You can burn my body to escape the cold
I beg for the fires of hell below

I′ve never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this


I've slogged in dear old Montreal
35 men lost to a squall
Should I hear the banshee sing
You can thaw my body by the turn of spring
Death would be such a beautiful thing

I′ve never known cold like this before
I′ve never known cold like this

Your flowing blood will start to freeze
Your legs quit moving and you lock your knees
You freeze your lungs when you breathe it in
And the harbor hisses with the cruel north wind
Frostbite takes your sorry skin

You clench your jaw til your face goes numb
You cannot be saved by the strongest rum
Your chattering teeth will start to crack
Your lips turn blue and your feet turn black
They'll dig your grave when the leaves are back
