N.Y. State of Mind
Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighborhood, Hop a flight to Miami Beach or Hollywood, But I'm taking the Greyhound, on the Hudson River Line, but me, I'm in a New York State of Mind. Seen all the movie stars in their fancy cars and their limosines. Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens. But I know what I need and I don't want to waste more time, I'm (I'm)in a New York State of mind. It was so easy living day by day. Out of touch with the rhythm and the blues. But now, right now I need a little give and take, baby. The New York Times and The Daily News. Comes down to reality, and its fine with me cause I let it slide. Don't care if its 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. I am just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River Line, cause I'm in a New York State of mind.
