Verse:

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.

 

Chorus:

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.
