| Some folks like to get away | |
| Take a holiday from the neighborhood | |
| Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood | |
| But I'm takin' a Greyhound | |
| On the Hudson River line | |
| I'm in a New York state of mind | |
| Seen all those movie stars | |
| And their fancy cars and their limousines | |
| Been high in the Rockies, under the evergreens | |
| But I know what I'm needin' | |
| And I don't wanna waste more time | |
| I'm in a New York state of mind | |
| It was so easy livin' day by day | |
| Out of touch with the rhythm and blues | |
| But now I need a little give and take | |
| The New York Times and the Daily News | |
| 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 up on Riverside | |
| I don't have any reasons | |
| I've left them all behind | |
| I'm in a New York state of mind | |
| I don't have any reasons | |
| Cause left them all behind | |
| I'm in a New York, I'm in a New York state of mind... |
