Cold Like This Lyrics by The Rumjacks

Dead Anthems

2025

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


Well, the winds'll blow and the winds'll roar
I've never known cold like this
The gulls are frozen to the shore
I've never known cold like this
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

Well, I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this

And I've slogged in dear old Montreal
I've never known cold like this
Thirty-five men lost to a squall
I've never known cold like this
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

Well, I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this

Your flowin' blood will start to freeze
I've never known cold like this
Your legs quit movin' and you lock your knees
I've never known cold like this
You freeze your lungs when you breathe it in
The harbor hisses in the cruel north wind
Frostbite takes your sorry skin
I've never known cold like this

You clench your jaw until your face goes numb
I've never known cold like this
Ya cannot be saved by the strongest rum
I've never known cold like this
Your chatterin' teeth will start to crack
Your lips turn blue and your feet turn black
They'll dig your grave when the leaves are back
I've never known cold like this

Well, I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
Well, I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
