Here's a version collected by Herbert Hughes in 1909.

A Maid Going To Comber
(also known as The Next Market Day)

A maid goin' to Comber her markets to larn
To sell for her mammy three hanks o' fine yarn
She met with a young man along the highway
Which caused the young damsel to dally and stray

Sit ye beside me, I mean ye no harm
Sit ye beside me, this new tune to larn
Here is three guineas your mammy to pay
So lay by your yarn til the next market day

They sat down together, the grass it was green
And the day was the fairest that ever was seen
Oh, the look in your eyes beat a mornin' o' May
I could sit by your side til the next market day

This young maid went home and the words that he said
And the air that he played her still rang in her head
She says I'll go find him by land or by sea
Til he larns me that tune called "The next market day"


And here is a version sung by Susan McKeown:

A maid going to Comber her markets to learn
To sell for her mammy three hanks of fine yarn
She met with a young man along the highway
And that was to cause her dally and stray

Sit down beside me I mean you no harm
Sit down beside me this new tune to learn
Here is three guineas your mammy to pay
So lay by your yarn till the next market day

They sat down together the grass it was green
The day was the fairest that ever was seen
The look in your eye would lead angels astray
So lay by your yarn till the next market day

The maid she went home and the words that he said
The song that he sang her still rang in her head
She says I’ll go find him by land or by sea
Till he learns me the tune called The Next Market Day
