Carmen Mcrae - 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 me, 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 limousines
Been high in the mountains under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't wanna waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind

It's been 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
What about The Daily News?

Now, 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 Riverside
Hey, I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind

New York
Hear me singing about you, New York
New York
I'm gonna keep screaming about you, New York
Hey, you got the Bronx, Staten Island, Brooklin too
Don't forget Queens and Manhattan
Known as The Apple, The Big Apple
New York
I'm gonna keep screaming about you, New York
Say it's so nice
They named it twice
New York, New York
New York, New York
New York, New York

But me, I'm taking a greyhound
On the Hudson River line, yeah, yeah, yeah…
Cause I'm in a New York state of mind
New York, New York
