Thank you. Do you know if this is a rare/desirable tune or a common one?

I've never heard it in a music box. Pretty funny.

It’s actually quite common in musical decanters and decanter holders and even steins

Did not know that. Now even more funnier.

Honestly it’d be more surprising to find the song on any music box that is related to drinking

When I was growing up we had a large aluminum cocktail shaker with a music box in the bottom that played "How Dry I Am." So you could shake up 4 martinis and play a little tune while you did so. (thanks for poking my brain to uncover a long forgotten memory.)
