New York State of Mind (Live)

Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood
Me, 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 Rockys under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needin', 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 rhythym and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News, oh-oh-oh

Now it comes down to reality
That's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
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
Oh, yeah

It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch, out of touch with the rhythym and blues
But now I need a little give and take
New York Post, Newsday too
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa, oh-oh

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 Oceanside
I don't have any reasons, I 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...

I'm in a New York

State of mind
