Billy Joel - New York State Of Mind

Billy Joel - New York State Of Mind 

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
