What is uncle remus lyrics?

Uncle Remus lyrics refer to the songs and rhymes that were popular during the era of the American Reconstruction (1865-1877) and were inspired by the oral traditions of African American slaves in the Southern United States. These songs, also known as Uncle Remus stories, were later adapted into a book by Joel Chandler Harris, titled "Uncle Remus: His Songs and His Sayings." The lyrics often featured animal characters such as Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox, and Brer Bear, and were accompanied by simple melodies and catchy tunes. Over time, these songs became an important part of the African American cultural heritage, with many of them being passed down from generation to generation. However, due to their racialized themes and depictions of stereotypical characters, Uncle Remus lyrics have been criticized for perpetuating racist ideas and attitudes.
