 LISTEN TO SHIRLEY SINGING THE SONG
 Saturday evening, instead of learning something from my vocal music teacher as usual, I taught myself a Chinese (Xijiang) folk song -- The Girl of Daban City for my teacher had hurt her feet on the stairs.
This song was written by A Famous Chinese Musician Wang Luobing. It is very famous in China. :-)
Can you imagine? Since this song sang what beautiful the girls in Baban City, the little City of Xinjiang has changed to be a famous tourist city, almost all of the people who have gone to Xinjiang want to go to the city to see the beautiful girls in the city... :-)
I have been found funny why the singer said to the girl who is in his heart:
Bring your money and wealth,
take with your younger sister,
come to me by your horse cart...
Maybe you can understand it after read something about Wang Luobing
MAIN MENAING OF THE SONGLISTEN TO SHIRLEY SINGING THE SONG:
Daban City's stone street is so flat and hard,
Watermelon is so big and sweet!
A girl in Daban City has some long braideds,
Her two eyes are so beautiful!
 If you wanted to get marrying,
don't marry anyone else,
You must marry only me.
Bring your money and wealth,
take with your younger sister,
come to me by your horse cart...
