Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighbourhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood
And I'm taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line
I'm in a New York state of mind

Well I've seen all the movie stars in their fancy cars and their limousines
Oh I've been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needin' and I don't wanna waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind

Oh it was so easy livin' day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and the blues
Oh but now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, the Daily News

Oh it all comes down to reality and it's fine with me cos I let it slide
I don't care if it's Chinatown or if it's Riverside
I don't have any reasons I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind

Oh and I will be, I will be taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line
Oh cos I'm in a New York
Oh I'm in a New York
I guess I'm in a New York state of mind
