New York State Of Mind |
| Some folks like to get away |
| Take a holiday from the neighborhood |
| Hop a flight to Miami Beach |
| Or to Hollywood |
| But I’m talking a Greyhound |
| On the Hudson River Line |
| I’m in a New York state of mind |
| I’ve seen all the movie stars |
| In their fancy cars and their limousines |
| Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens |
| But I know what I’m needing |
| And I don’t want to waste more time |
| I’m in a New York state of mind |
| It was so easy living day by day |
| Out of touch with the rhythm and blues |
| But now I need a little give and take |
| The New York Times, The Daily News |
| It comes down to reality |
| And it’s fine with me 'cause I’ve let it slide |
| Don’t care if it’s Chinatown or on Riverside |
| I don’t have any reasons |
| I’ve left them all behind |
| I’m in a New York state of mind |
| It was so easy living day by day |
| Out of touch with the rhythm and blues |
| But now I need a little give and take |
| The New York Times, The Daily News |
| It comes down to reality |
| And it’s fine with me 'cause I’ve let it slide |
| Don’t care if it’s Chinatown or on Riverside |
| I don’t have any reasons |
| I’ve left them all behind |
| I’m in a New York state of mind |
| I’m just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River Line |
| 'Cause I’m in a New York state of mind |
