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 takin' 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 needin', and I don't want to waste more time. I'm in a New York state of mind.
It was so easy livin' 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 its fine with me cause I've let it slide. [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/new-york-state-of-mind-lyrics-billy-joel.html ] 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. 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.

I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line. Cause I'm in a, I'm in a New York state of mind
