[00:56.46]Some folks like to get away
[00:59.07]Take a holiday from the neighborhood
[01:03.92]Hop a flight to Miami Beach
[01:07.12]Or to Hollywood
[01:12.15]But I'm talking a Greyhound
[01:15.12]On the Hudson River Line
[01:21.09]I'm in a New York state of mind
[01:24.90]
[01:32.87]I've seen all the movie stars
[01:35.34]In their fancy cars and their limousines
[01:40.17]Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
[01:48.46]But I know what I'm needing
[01:51.70]And I don't want to waste more time
[01:57.33]I'm in a New York state of mind
[02:01.69]
[02:09.26]It was so easy living day by day
[02:16.33]Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
[02:24.22]But now I need a little give and take
[02:31.23]The New York Times, The Daily News
[02:38.46]
[02:43.74]It comes down to reality
[02:46.91]And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
[02:51.32]Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
[02:59.33]I don't have any reasons
[03:03.50]I've left them all behind
[03:08.60]I'm in a New York state of mind
[03:16.32]
[03:54.60]It was so easy living day by day
[04:02.14]Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
[04:09.89]But now I need a little give and take
[04:17.15]The New York Times, The Daily News
[04:24.74]
[04:30.42]It comes down to reality
[04:33.12]And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
[04:38.01]Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
[04:45.46]I don't have any reasons
[04:49.23]I've left them all behind
[04:54.17]I'm in a New York state of mind
[04:58.64]
[05:05.63]I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River Line
[05:43.71]'Cause I'm in a New York state of mind
