Various Artists - New York State of Mind lyrics

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 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 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, The Daily News [Verse 3] 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 [Bridge] [Verse 3] I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line Because I'm in a New York state of mind
