Billy Joel - New York State of Mind lyrics
[Billy Joel - New York State of Mind lyrics]
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 (Mmh mmh)
I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies
Under the evergreens i know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind (Mmh mmh)
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 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
(Mmh mmh, oh yeah)
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
(Who oh, uh oh uh oh)
It comes down to reality
And it'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 (Mmh mmh)
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, yeah
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 (Mmh mmh)
I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies
Under the evergreens i know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind (Mmh mmh)
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 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
(Mmh mmh, oh yeah)
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
(Who oh, uh oh uh oh)
It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause
I've let it slide i don't care if it's

I don't have any reasons I
Left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind (Mmh mmh)
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, yeah
