Some folks like to get away, |
|
Take a holiday from the neighborhood. |
|
Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood. |
|
But I'm takin' 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. |
|
I know what I'm needin', and I don't wanna waste more time. |
|
I'm in a New York state of mind. |
|
It was so easy livin' 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. |
|
I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside. |
|
I don't have any reasons. |
|
I left them all behind. |
|
I'm in a New York state of mind. |
|
Oh yeah. |
|
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. |
|
Who, oh, oh whoa who. |
|
It comes down to reality, and it's fine with me cause I've let it slide. |
|
I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside. |
|
I don't have any reasons. |
|
I 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, I'm in a New York state of mind |
