New York State of Mind
Some folks like to get awayTake a holiday from the neighborhoodHop a flight to Miami Beach or to HollywoodBut I'm takin' a GreyhoundOn the Hudson River lineI'm in a New York state of mindSeen all those movie starsAnd their fancy cars and their limousinesBeen high in the Rockies, under the evergreensBut I know what I'm needin'And I don't wanna waste more timeI'm in a New York state of mindIt was so easy livin' day by dayOut of touch with the rhythm and bluesBut now I need a little give and takeThe New York Times and the Daily NewsComes down to realityAnd it's fine with me cause I've let it slideI don't care if it's Chinatown or up on RiversideI don't have any reasonsI've left them all behindI'm in a New York state of mindI don't have any reasonsCause left them all behindI'm in a New York, I'm in a New York state of mind From Letras Mania
