New York State Of Mind (feat. Tony Bennett) - Live at Shea Stadium, Queens, NY - July 2008

Well, some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood
I'm takin' a Greyhound on the Hudson River line
I'm in a New York state of mind
Ladies and Gentlemen, Tony Bennett

I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
I've been high in the Rockies, under evergreens
But I know what I really need
I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind, yes
Hey

It was so easy livin' day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues, yeah baby
Now I need a little give and take
New York Times, the Daily News
Woah, and you know it

Comes right down to reality
And that's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's Chinatown or up on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind, Tony
I'm in a New York state of mind
New York

It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues, yeah, baby
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, the Daily News
Woo-woo-woo-woah, wo-woah-oh-oh-oh

Comes down to reality
And it's fine with me cause I've let it slide, Tony
Don't care if it's Chinatown or up on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind
New York
I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River line
'Cause I'm in a New York state of mind
New York, Billy Joel
State of mind, Tony Bennett, from Astoria
Hey

New York
