[Verse: Barbra Streisand, Billy Joel]
Well, 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
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
[Refrain: Barbra Streisand, Billy Joel]
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
[Chorus: Billy Joel]
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 (cause I left them all behind)
We're in a New York state of mind
[Refrain: Barbra Streisand & Billy Joel]
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
[Chorus: Barbra Streisand & Billy Joel]
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 (cause I left them all behind)
We're in a New York state of mind
[Outro: Barbra Streisand]
Billy let's go get some pizza (What about some Chinese?)
Uh, even better!
