Billy Joel Greatest Hits Lyrics

New York State of Mind

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.
