In the yosahoi bushi, what does the "yosa hoi" and "hoi" mean?

I quote the first line here.




The refrain is:


Does it mean anything in particular? There ar
e a lot of meaning in
goo国語辞典 for ほい, but non
e for よさほい。I can't see any
meanings in goo that
make the song make sense, except perhaps for:


1
¼ˆæ„Ÿï¼‰(1)
£ãŸã‚Šã™ã‚‹æ™‚に発する掛け声。(2)失敗...[
らに]

if the song's protagonist has, erm, "uketotta" a
"musume".

Thanks in advance for any help.

Could someone clever please explain to me, in simple terms designed to
enlighten one of the meanest understanding, why I keep getting these
posts in which some of the stuff is sensible Japanese and some of the
stuff is mojibake.

Unless you're really attached to Unison (and I know you paid good money
for the thing), try Thunderbird: it's not great, but it seems to handle
all the various character sets without seizing up too much. As for why
you're having problems, I have no idea*, a state I'm becoming
increasingly comfortable in.


*Actually, that's not quite true: I see that your
Content-Transfer-Encoding is 8bit, while the post you're replying to is
base64; beyond _that_ I have no idea.

Ok, I've got the Thunderbird thing, which is what I'm sending this with. There's gibberish in the above post as I look at it.
Anyway, I'll try this for a while and see how it goes.
