New York State Of Mind (Feat. Tony Bennett) - Billy Joel
Some folks like to get away
Take 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

I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their
limousines
Been high in the Rockies under
the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want
to waste more time
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
And you know it
comes right down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause
I've let it slide
Don't care if it's 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

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 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 a New York state
of mind New York
state of mind
