I found lyrics to "Hob ikh mir an altn daym" here: https://images.shulcloud.com/7551/uploads/Documents/Songsheets-YIDDISHCONCERT5.31.20.pdf HOB IKH MIR AN ALTN DAYM Folk song, published by M. Gelbart in 1938 Hob ikh mir an altn daym. Tra-la-la, la-la-la-la Iz der daym oykh nit mayn. Tra-la-la, la-la-la-la Chorus: Lomir ale freylekh zayn Kumt mit mir in shenk arayn, Trinken bronfn, trinken vayn! Tra-la-la, la-la-la-la Nit keyn morgn, nit keyn haynt ..... Nit keyn khaver, nit keyn fraynt.... Hob ikh mir a gantsn toler ..... Vel ikh zayn der gantser tsoler.... Hob ikh nit keyn vayb un kind.... Bin ikh fray vi der vint ..... Lomir nit zayn vi di alte babes.... Lomir makhn fun mitvokh shabes! All I have is an old dime, which isn’t even mine. But let’s throw our cares away.

The lyrics above are exactly the same in Mir Trogn a Gezang, by Elanor Gordon Mlotek, pp 66-67 (Published by the Workmen's Circle, 1972 & 2000) The melody sounds very familiar to me, and I couldn't figure out why. Then I found this:
