Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighborhood Hop a flight to miami beach or hollywood. I'm taking a greyhound on the hudson river line- I'm in a new york state of mind.
I 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 the 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 riverside, I don't have any reasons, I've left them all behind- I'm in a new york state of mind.
Repeat 3rd verse
I'm just taking a greyhound on the hudson river line- 'cause I'm in a new york state of mind.
