new york state of mind witth billy joel

Barbra Streisand

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
