Do not like most of his songs, except this one. He was regarded as a "king" in the place where I used to live.
My LD likes the show "Moving Out", which is based on his songs. Unfortunately, we missed the chance of seeing him performing this song on the stage.

Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to miami beach or hollywood.
I’m taking a greyhound on the hudson river line-
I’m in a new york state of mind.
I seen all the movie stars in their fancy cars and their limousines,
Been high in the rockies under the evergreens,
But I know what I’m needing and I don’t want to waste more time-
I’m in a new york state of mind.
It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and the 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,
Don’t care if it’s chinatown or riverside,
I don’t have any reasons, I’ve left them all behind-
I’m in a new york state of mind.
Repeat 3rd verse
I’m just taking a greyhound on the hudson river line-
’cause I’m in a new york state of mind.
