PUFF,
THE MAGIC DRAGON

L.Lipton
P.Yarrow
Puff the magic dragon

Lived by the sea
And frolicked

in the autumn mist

In a land called Hanalee
Little Jackie Paper

Loved that rascal Puff
And brought him strings

and sealing wax

And other fancy stuff
Oh Puff the magic dragon

Lived by the sea
And frolicked

in the autumn mist

In a land called Hanalee
Puff the magic dragon

Lived by the sea
And frolicked

in the autumn mist

In a land called Hanalee
Together they would travel

On a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept

a lookout perched

On Puff's gigantic tail
Noble kings and princes

Would bow

whene'er they came
Pirate ships would

lower their flags

When Puff roared out

his name
Oh Puff the magic dragon

Lived by the sea
And frolicked

in the autumn mist

In a land called Hanalee
Puff the magic dragon

Lived by the sea
And frolicked

in the autumn mist

In a land called Hanalee
A dragon lives forever

But not so little boys
Painted wings

and giants' rings

Make way for other toys
One grey night it happened

Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff

that mighty dragon

He ceased his fearless roar
His head was bent in sorrow

Green scales fell like rain
Puff no longer went to play

Along the cherry lane
Without his lifelong friend

Puff could not be brave
So Puff that mighty dragon

Sadly slipped into his cave
Oh Puff the magic dragon

Lived by the sea
And frolicked

in the autumn mist

In a land called Hanalee
Puff the magic dragon

Lived by the sea
And frolicked

in the autumn mist

In a land called Hanalee
