Puff,  the magic dragon lived  by the sea
 
 And  frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee,
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 Honah Lee,
Puff,  the magic dragon lived  by the sea
 
 And  frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.
Together  they would travel on  a boat with billowed  sail
 And Jackie  kept a lookout perched  on Puff’s  gigantic tail,
Noble  kings and princes  would bow  whenever 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 Honah Lee,
Puff,  the magic dragon lived  by the sea
 
 And  frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.
 A dragon  lives forever  but not  so little boys
Painted  wings and giant 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 life-long friend, Puff  could not be brave,
 So Puff  that mighty dragon, he slipped  into his cave.  oh!
Puff,  the magic dragon lived  by the sea
 
 And  frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee,
Puff,  the magic dragon lived  by the sea
 
 And  frolicked  in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.
