7 Puff, The Magic Dragon As recorded by: PeterYarrow with Bethany and Rufus Verse #1: And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee. Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal, Puff, And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. Oh, And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee. Oh, And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee. Verse #2: Together they would travel on a boat with a 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 low'r their flag when Puff roared out his name. Oh, And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee. Oh, And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.

8 Verse #3: A dragon lives forever, but not so little girls and boys, Painted wings and giant s rings make way for other toys. One gray night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar. Verse #4: 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 sadly slipped into his cave. Oh, And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee. Oh, And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.
