{Intro}
New York City was a stich in time
When I stood all I could of LA
Patchin' up the pieces of my tangled mind
Diggin' somethin' different every day, yeah
Soon as I was better I was movin' on
Gettin' it together, gettin' good and gone
And by (gettin' by) high (good and high)
And strange (gonna get some strange)
New ain't nothin' but a state of mind
Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind
I'll take anything that I can find
Anyhow, anywhere, anyway, anytime
I'll keep livin' till the day I die
As long as I can get it up for one more try
Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)
And strange (gonna get some strange)

New ain't nothin' but a state of mind
Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind
I'll take anything that I can find
Anyhow, anywhere, anyway, anytime
I'll keep livin' till the day I die
As long as I can get it up for one more try
Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)
And strange (gonna get some strange)
Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)
And strange (gonna get some strange)
Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)
And strange (gonna get some strange)
