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
