"A U Hinny Burd" appears (as "A U A") in Henry Robson's list of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes entitled The Northern Minstrel's Budget, published c. 1800. Lyrics, given by Bruce & Stoke (1882) begin:
Its O but aw ken well
A U hinny burd
The bonny lass o' Benwell,
A U A;
She's lang-legged and mother-like,
A U hinny burd,
See she's raking up the dyke,'
A U A.
