New York State of Mind

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some folks like to get away Take a holiday from the neighborhood Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood But I'm taking a Greyhound On the Hudson River Line I'm in a New York state of mind [Verse 2] 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 [Bridge] 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 and the Daily News [Verse 3] Comes down to rеality And it's fine with me 'cause I'vе let it slide I 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 [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] 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 Oh, woah, New York state of mind
