Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn
Mist in a land called Honalee
Little Jackie Paper he loved that rascal
Puff and bought him string and sealing wax
And lots of fancy stuff

Oh, Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honalee
Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honalee

Together they would travel on
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 Honalee
Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honalee

A dragon lives forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant's rings make
Way for other toys
One gray night it happened
Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that magic 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
Little Puff could not be brave
So Puff that magic 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 Honalee
Oh, Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honalee
