New York State Of Mind

Some folks like to get away
For 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

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 the 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... I'm in a new york state of mind
New york state of mind
