Youyang folk songs are rooted in this deep fertile soil of Youyang. Folk songs are voices from people's hearts, with deep and sincere feelings and vivid artistic expressions. After thousands of people circulated, eliminated and processed, it has a strong artistic appeal. Judging from the lyrics, the artistic emotion in Youyang folk songs is not only sincere, but also profound. Because the people are most familiar with life, they have a profound experience and understanding of life, and they can express the essence of life in folk songs, which hit the nail on the head and have amazing artistic generalization. For example, "When I saw the sun go down, my sister and I sang a folk song, rubbing our roots and throwing them up, and the sun was not allowed to set." The words "tree vine" and "hanging" are meaningful and pun-intended. Judging from the tunes, there are many kinds of Youyang folk songs, and the tunes are rich, beautiful and smooth. Most of them are freestyle folk songs and minor tunes, mainly in Gongdiao, Zheng and Yu. Most of their melodic structures belong to the category of national and folk five-tone, mainly single-voice mode, and some irregular "harmony" structures will appear in some "labor songs", which makes them feel very cordial after listening.

No matter from the artistic content or artistic form, Youyang folk songs are a unique national folk art form. She is profound and simple, short and pithy, lively, natural and bright, simple and vigorous, full of artistic appeal and imagination. Youyang folk songs will certainly play an important role in people's practice of creating history and transforming nature. Why is the boxwood pole so soft and slippery (Harry Ge),

Hey ~ ~ ~ Hey ~ ~ (Brother Harry)! With the development of society and the progress of mankind, the sedan chair in Gongtan ancient town no longer exists. However, when I was working in Gongtan in 1950s, the leader sent me to escort a guest to Youyang. This guest is a three-inch golden lotus, so he can't walk long distances, so he has to hire an Apeng sedan chair (also called a sliding pole) in the ancient town and send it to Youyang County. There is a 90-kilometer mountain road from Gongtan to Youyang County, and it takes two days to get there. Along the way, two bearers carried their sedan chairs over mountains and mountains and experienced hardships. Wherever they went, they touched the scene. The former talks freely, while the latter answers casually, exchanges information with songs, understands the situation anytime and anywhere, and pays attention to safe travel. These lyrics are catchy, showing the charm of the ancient town's national culture, telling the ups and downs in the sedan chair people's hearts, and also deeply imprinted in my heart. More than 50 years have passed, and the songs of the bearers still come to mind from time to time. Early in the morning, a Peng sedan chair leaned against the stone steps of the district office and the guests arrived. The sedan chair bearer Wang and Ransang carried the sedan chair to Youyang. Cheerful, smiling, seeing the guests off to the county seat (before singing). Lift the railing (after closing the door) and have a safe trip. There are white clouds in the sky and the ground is noisy. On the left is the aristocrat,

There are dignitaries on the left, lean to the right. The dry road is connected with the waterway, and there is a transition ahead. Lean forward against the boat, don't fall backwards. Look up, climb, steep slope, turn away. Both sides are dignitaries, leaning towards the middle line. Xiakankan, take your time. The downhill slope is slippery, so stand firm. The road is opposite to the sky, and each goes his own way. Hold your head up and chest out. Several families on the roadside will stay tomorrow morning. Turn two in a row and throw both sides. Go into the corner and swing forward, not backward. Come to Dingjiawan to relax and have a cigarette. The bridge is empty and the foot is in the center. Animals don't talk. Get out of the way. Listen to all directions, to Tonggu Beach. There is a forest by the side of the road. Take a breath before starting. There are dark clouds in the sky, put up the tarpaulin quickly. Pave the way and take a step. Even the second slope, heel foot. The brave win in the narrow road. Please go first. The sky is bright and the groundwater is underground. Bright ahead, safe to Youyang.
