- Peter, Paul & Mary singing their classic hit, "Puff the Magic Dragon."
Lyrics:
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
Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail,
Noble kings and princes would bow whenever they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flag 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 sadly 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.
In 1962 or 63 Peter, Paul and Mary came to my 5th grade class and sang Puff. I still remember it vividly to this day.
wow thats so amazing
where?
amazing
that must have been so cool
Lucky
My son Eric was my Jacky, when he left this world, I went to my cave and have been there ever since. I miss you son, Dad loves you.
😢
He lives on, forever in your heart.
😢 So sorry. But I bet Eric would want you to live again even tho things will never be the same.
Roccospencer,,
I am with you on this..
God loves you..
I am constantly looking and making new friends that are younger then me, cause people that are older, they keep having medical issues & passing on.. ya it sucks, but God loves me.
I keep being me, spreading the love within me to others..
This is all we can do..
There is a saying,,,
If you can't be who you are, , then you won't be..
So friend, seek God and His kingdom and all that He has for you.
We as people need to get out and talk to others, even at the store..
From one older guy to another, keep moving,, decide to make changes, even small changes, don't keep doing the same ole thing..
Living and dieing is part of life.
Don't let what others do or don't do, drag you down...
😊 I care about people and I care about you and I am a stranger..
Find things to do and keep your mind busy..
Start going fishing, talk to other fisherman, make friends. Keep moving,..
Talk to God, Read your Bible, Pray about all things and bring all your requests to God the Father,, in Jesus name..
You are not alone..
Most other people have lost family members along the way of life..
I hope I have encouraged you to keep moving and keeping your mind busy with the NOW THINGS in life..
The past is past, we can't change that,
The future we can't change or predict & tomorrow is not promised.
All we have is NOW, TODAY, THIS MINUTE, so know there are others that need a friend too,, not just you..
Get out there, enjoy the life we have Today not yesterday's life..
Today and Now is all we have..
Remember God loves you and so do I... From
brother Harvey

My son, Melvin passed. This was his favorite bedtime song! Momma misses you Melvin! I love you!!!❤
At 75 years old, I still love singing this, and I still cry! Am I a stupid old man? If I am, I don't really care!
Not stupid. I am 35 and my old man used to sing this to me when I was a kid. I tear up every time I hear this song, I hope to bring half the joy to this world that this song has brought me and my dad.
I’m 50 and still cry when I hear it. It’s a heartbreaking song. If I was talented I’d add another verse to make it a happy ending.
I don't care if I grow up to be stupid. As long as I know wrong from right and as long as I can still call this song a masterpiece I will be happy with myself.
70 and feel the same.
Not stupid at all sir
Sixty years later I realize that Peter, Paul, and lovely Mary were actually the magic and it still lives today.
Yes it does. loved this song in my younger days. Still do going on 75.
I was about 24 when I first heard this song loved it then and I still love it today. I'm old now, 81 Time sure gets by fast!! Puff is still around---- at least in my heart!
Ah that's so cute!!!
Mine, also! I am 67 and have loved this since I was a kid! God Bless ya!
Me as well sir I’m 64 years young, time sure is slipping away from our earthly bonds
David, I am almost 68, still love this song! God Bless You!
My teacher would always sing this when I was in second grade. I am onto my 20’s now. So glad this song has lived on through generations
I was on a bus from Vienna to Budapest back in 71. There were young people from all over the world. Someone started singing Michael rowed the boat ashore, then Puff the Magic Dragon. We sang all the way to Budapest.
One of the saddest songs about the loss of friendship. I remember hearing it as a child, and even then it was so haunting, it made me cry.
It was not so about a loss of friendship as a loss of loosing our imagination! Like finding out about Santa broke my heart! Innocence loss!
Peter Yarrow, who wrote this, has stated that this song is about ''the loss of innocence in children.''
I did! Former librarian and teacher!
I don't hear anything sad here.
I agree it is a very deep song
Puff the Magic Dragon walked out on the Strand.
He looked down and there he saw footprints in the sand.
A voice said Mr. Dragon, please don't be so sad.
My name is Jenny Paper. I was sent here by my dad.
I teared up just reading that
O! Puff the magic dragon lived by the sea
@@johnlaffan2883 And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Hannalee.
Thank you.
That was beautiful, thank you.🐉
I remember my father telling me that the day I first went to primary school he was driving me there in my new uniform. At the time I was obsessed with puff the magic dragon and was singing this song on my way there. As he drove his kid to their first day of school I sang “a dragon lives forever, but not so little boys”. 7 year old me had no idea, but my father told me years later as I finished high-school, that he bawled his eyes out on his way home. Beautiful but haunting song.
😭😭Shit man thats as
nostalgic as it gets.
I'm already crying from the song ..your comment just made me cry harder. I miss my dad terribly, and my mom for that matter. It's a very poignant song :( Very touching comment
That is the lyric why it was banned? If it was, How stupid.
I can't explain how as an adult this still viscerally hurts me to the core. I think I just always associated this song with loneliness and I still feel that vast loneliness today when I hear this just like I'm 5 years old.
My 4 yr old daughter listened to the song today, and she cried and told her mom she was sad.
Peace to you
Oh my God sit down and be a man have you never heard of stoicism? Or you just easily moved to tears by anything? God man up. Your sentiment is too much to bear and is nauseating you should be embarrassed.
@@guitarbust9418 I remember feeling the same way around 5 or 6 (21 now). Something about the melody has this deeply sad undertone and I feel sad whenever I hear jt
@@marcusbaker1092 Yes there's an undercurrent of sadness about childhood growing up, and leaving loved ones behind. Things Change!
I sang this song to my son 38 years ago as he sat on my lap I held him close. I forever cherish those moments.
💜
😢
😭
speaking from a sons point of view he too will always cherish it my mom also sang this to me to put me to sleep when i was a child i am now 40 going on 41 she is 58 and now we play it and sing it together on guitar for me this song will always be special because it bonds me and my mom who i love so much i remember also me and my mom went to san francisco one year and we were walking down lombardi hill we started singing this together we got so into it we started skipping to it down the street people looked at us like we were nuts and when we realized this we started laughing so hard and just continued singing and enjoying areselves and this wonderful song good times
@@froggy5584 Beautiful, thank you.
I know I’m young (14 years old) but this song will always have a special spot in my heart
I'm 13 and my English teacher showed this to my class and now it's one of my favorite songs :')
Age is just a number and shoudnt be a handicap for music that can touch your heart you can listening to what you want
That’s the Ponint of the song kind of
Hey, I was the same age when I listened to this song, and now at 23, I sing it to my kids. Good music never dies.
Drew, I am 67, and I will always love this song! God Bless you!
The song is sadly touching in ways that all of us can understand. Puff is the embodiment of the innocence of youth and the ease of youthful friendships and play. When this song brings a tear to the eye, we not only cry for Puff the Magic Dragon, we cry for our own abandoned youth and its lazy sun filled days and fantastic adventures. Our tears pay homage to a simpler past that we envision sadly slipping into the cave along with the lonely dragon.
I thought this song was about marijuana and getting high
@@DeplorableJaredBrodersen Wow!
Spot-on.
@@DeplorableJaredBrodersenum no. Not what it is about.
Marijuana ….. ummm ok
Leaving this comment here so in case somebody leaves a like, I come back here. 🐉
Come on back and give your imagination another roar
Come back today
come back boi
i clicked dislike!!!
i have a feeling you need to hear this again soon :)
My cat was called Puff in stuff. She was born in 1968 and I had her for 21 years. I used to sing it to her. My heart breaks and bursts when I close my eyes and go back in time to those childhood days and the dreams.
Sometimes memories can be the most painful of things....
My first kitty was named Puff. That was 1956., long before the Magic Dragon. More in the time of Dick, Jane, Sally, Spot and Puff from a first reader series. I loved that kitty so. ❣️
HR PuffnStuff?
God bless your heart. I hope one day, you two will be together again.
My heart breaks, just reading all these comments
Does anyone else cry every time they hear this song?
+aliadizzle Always.
+aliadizzle I lose it after "One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more"
+Mario Labot -- Me too! That whole verse - "Dragons live forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant strings make way for other toys..." and beyond, omg, I seriously lose it. I'm not talking like, oh, that's sad, I am talking full on tears and sobs. Poor Puff :(
+aliadizzle Same... And I'm in a public library writing a paper.
Me
I cannot listen to this without breaking down uncontrollably, because of the child I used to be.
The bittersweet memories of growing up in the 1960’s. I am a 1958 baby.
"Bittersweet memories" you got that right! I'm a 10-11-59 baby that grew up in NYC 1:00 pm 9-1-21
LOL...I meant 1AM, not pm
I can't hear this song without bawling my eyes out!
Me too x
Me too
Young ones love adventure, games for bold and brave
Soon Daniel Drum and Johnny Plum had found Puff's magic cave
With coloured flags a waving, they dance upon the shore
And children come from miles around to hear Puff's mighty roar
It's a touching song for sure. Listen to Elvis Presley's , Old Shep ....... 😢
2024. My favorite childhood memory is this sweet song
It is a beautiful song. Here it is 2024, and so timely.
In 1993 I travelled to Denmark and with a fellow Italian we met some really pretty danish girls. We hanged around with them for a week or so. My friend didn't know a word of english. I did as I knew how to sing in english. This danish girl played the guitar and we both sang this song. For the life of me I can't remember how we chose this song. Singing this song with her deepened our bond. Nope, we didn't become a couple in the end. It just deepened our bond for the short time I spent in Denmark. Now whenever I hear this song I think of a beautiful blonde blue eyed girl from Fredericia and how we shared a beautiful few days together.
Greetings from Italy and a melancholic middle aged Italian dude.
Lorenzo Notarianni Thank you for sharing. I love hearing little stories like this
@@linusbennemann6981 Thankyou for reading and appreciating.
Did you score?
@@dales769 Yep.
The difficult thing is trying to find any Danish girls who are not pretty.
My son loved this song when he was young. He passed 11 years ago today
I feel like this song brings everyone together in happiness or sadness, and this comment definitely proves that, it doesnt matter who you are, or how you feel, this song can make anyone happy or sad, or miss things that havent even happened yet.
I remember this song when I was very young. My mom passed away when I was 10 and remember listening to it before then. Always brings a tear to my eye. Isn’t it something how music brings back memories even over 43 years ago?
I’m so sorry to hear that. He’s asleep now awaiting the return of Christ.
I’m very very sorry for your loss
So sorry Carol, God must have needed an angel. I know you will see your son again one day.
65 and this always a tear bringer why dnt people play real music anymore
My family wanted me to sing this at my mom's funeral.. I can't listen to that last verse without getting choked up, there's no way I could've ever made it through this song.
Sorry for your loss, and I wouldn't have made to the end either...
Thank-you for the thumbs up...
Bless
Ever since I read this comment I can’t make it through the last verse either. It hits me hard almost every time. This song is now way more than just being about growing up and losing innocence.
It's a good thing she never lived to hear you sing this song, she'd probably die from embarrassment. Lol you know this song's about drugs right? How fitting you're probably a drug addict and your mother was probably a w****
I didn't realize there were so many people in this world that like me, that always will love love Puff, it can bring a tear to an eye even today. Miss you Mary & all that you brought to the world.
She was an astounding presence
Kerrie Tapp it isn’t
@@thediamondstewyt8260 You are so right! It was a song we needed years ago!
@Kerrie Tapp Peter Yarrow's roommate at Cornell, Leonard Lipton, wrote the words after he read Ogden Nash's poem "Custard the Dragon" and thought he could write a better poem. Yarrow found it on the typewriter and realized he could put music to it. I think it's pretty clearly based on English folklore. Yarrow always said it was about the loss of innocence. Puff is really a toy and a figment of a little boy's imagination. Eventually, little boys grow up and quit playing with toy dragons.
@Kerrie Tapp No it is not.
At 62 I find myself missing the music of the 60s an 70s.If I had known it would be gone somefay I would have stayed a little longer.
My cat died a month ago and this song really helps me get it all out. We got her when I was 7 and I had her longer than I’ve been without her. I really have lost my lifelong friend but we’ll see each other again one day.
I so understand your morning of kitty cat. I have lost way too many. I have a couple friends that won’t let me go too long in between starting with another cat. I love my friends and it’s difficult to lose one cat after another but now I have one that I love so much and, they don’t give me enough time to say I don’t want another. Cats are so precious and I am so sorry for your loss.
This is exactly what I thought of, the loss of my first cat, he was a special little dude until one day he wasn't there anymore 😭
I remember watching this being sung on television. At the end - when Puff "sadly slipped into his cave" another little boy came along and the whole story started all over again. Never give up 😊🎉
I like to believe that Jack would introduce Puff to his own children, nieces/nephews etc.
@@milumav Someone should write a song about that!
@@zorrothefox2000 🤜🤛
I never gave up on Puff as I'm approaching 40. He still sits on my work desk awaiting his next adventure after I punch out.
I always kind of figured that jackie died in this song, but the line “dragons live forever, but not so little boys” might imply that jack just... grew up, and just lost interest in puff, which I honestly think is way sadder
Way sadder...I listen to this song and hope that there’s more verses and Jackie returns when he realises the value of this friendship.
How the flying fuck do you lose interest in A BLOODY DRAGON!
It’s not a fish! It’s a real life dragon, bitch please tell me how!
@@lordbonney9779 XD true
@@lordbonney9779 I had always assumed that Puff was a stuffed toy, and the adventures were simply imagined, still super sad though
That is exactly the sadness of this classic tear jerker, Jackie simply got older and as sad as this part of life is, he moves on to other things, leaving poor Puff alone,....all alone, no more with his little friend.
My dad used to sing this song to me and my sister when we were children. We’d sit on our bunk beds and he’d sing the whole thing softly to us. I never understood it as a child, but now I do. I can’t listen to it without crying. It makes me feel safe and small again. Reminds me how easy it was to be a child. It makes me really miss my father.
I sang this for my kids when they were little...I think that they now(in their 20's) understand that it is about the loss of childhood innocence.
He sang this song to you and your sister right before he molested you both?
My mom would sing this to my siblings and I when we were little.
This is the best song about smoking Weed.
@@mikestanley9176
My mother sang this song to us as well. She made sure we knew all the words. She recently passed away last week and I can suddenly remember all the songs she liked and made sure we knew them too.
Downtown and Ferry Across the Mercy was one of her favorites too.
James, thank you so very much for this video. I discovered something about myself that I hadn’t known before. The ending made me cry as a child and it makes me cry now, as an old lady. One of my most beloved songs…..bless you.
😀🐈
If this song doesnt pull on your heartstrings..and make you feel happy and sad at the same time..
I wouldn't trust a person not moved by this song.
I’m 29 and my grandpa used to sit with me and play this song on his guitar ❤️ I’ll cherish those memories for ever. Thank you Grandpa!🙏🏽
You are lucky to have them.
Right before he molested you?
@@judsonkr hi nice
yer granda was a beast
Mine too, it warms my bones to hear it.❤🎉
Legend has it that to this day the audience’s silence deafens Puff to this day.
About 9 when my step father showed me this song and I danced on his toes. I’ll never forget those times together listening to this song. 🪽
I'm 62 and haven't heard this song in a long time, I can still sing every word!! and yes, I cry....
So do I!
I remember all the words, too! I used to be a school librarian! I so enjoyed getting kids to try so many new books! Imagine is so important especially if you love to read!
Imagination, able to see the picture a book is showing you! Read! Go anywhere you want to!
I'm 51 and cry every time I hear this...and I mean EVERY TIME!
why?
Growing up I used to hear my father pick out this song on his guitar and sing it with so much joy. He couldnt read music but still taught himself to play guitar, piano and banjo. Today he is deep in the throes of dementia and his guitar is silent as he has no memory now of how to play it. I cant get sing this song all the way through without tearing up, thinking of my father sitting in his beat up old rocking chair, playing his guitar and singing this song. Here's to you Dad and I love you!
When I was a child, this song made me very sad. I wanted to go find puff and play with him, and ride him into the sunset.
no worries the guy that wrote the original poem / lyrics went to Cornell University and studied physics, later plagiarized a bunch of other people's work and eventually gave rise to various 3d visualization systems including the Real D cinematic system. An odd yet pragmatic character and given to going off the rails in terms of douche baggery and colorful antics. Pushy and probably a dope head.
Don't matter how old i get as soon as I hear this song i become a little boy again
The power of music! It takes us back...like a time machine
This song throws me back to kindergarten black n white TV and the cold ear ooohhh those were the days as does Melanie singing lay it all down and brand new key
As a young pup (49), I can agree!
@@michaelhull216 I remember those years!
Exactly
I am a 1954 baby and my sister a 1957, so at this age, I hear this song and reminds me of my little sister Suzie, whom I love with all my heart and what a wonder world it was in 1965. unlike today
RIP Mary. Your wonderful voice, charm and all the joy PPM has brought me over the decades. Miss you. 😢
@Sean Animations she passed away back in 2009
I still believe in Puff. I will always believe in him. ❤️❤️
My wife looks at me as if I am stupid when she sees me listening to this. Her loss.
i always enjoy this song and I am 63!
Be proud to listen to this, it is something from childhood we will always cherish!
Oh, this song means so much more than the words! We are loosing our innocence when we leave Puff behind! I never totally did that! Taught in an Elementary School, kept some of the feeling! Retired now, but still believe in childhood!
29 and my ex husband and I used to sing this at our tiny apt lol
Be young in your heart as long as you can!
The audience gently singing along is something very touching to see.
I am 65 years old and still love this song after all these years
I am 57 years old and from Bavaria
I’m going to be 67 in June thank you everybody

My grandmother would sing this to me to help me fall asleep when I was young and hyper-active. As an adult, it still helps me to find inner calm. To anyone who reads this comment ... just a kind and friendly reminder to call or text those people who you love and let them know what they mean to you.
Your grandmother saying this song to you? Right before she molested you? Nice 👍
I used to sing this song to my son before he went to sleep. Still sing after he died & I cry.
A moving song about the cost of growing up. Sadly, a person doesn't have to place their childhood fancies on the cold, unyielding altar of adulthood. They can bring those fancies along with them and share. This song always reminds me of the importance of that.
A great song about losing the innocence of childhood play.
I was 4 in 1965 and this is one of the first songs I remember. I think I knew what good energy was even that young., because it made me feel good - peaceful. Whenever I watch any video of Peter, Paul and Mary, it still gives me good vibes. 🙏

Hi. I am South Korean. I've been listening to this song since I was exactly 11 years old. It's a piece of music I learned during school music class, and I remember listening to it at home since then because I loved the music so much. I am now 20 years old, but memories of that time still remain precious to me.
Maybe get some new songs to listen to then. Loser

I drove an hour on half just to hear this song in a 67 VW BUS..never forget it

Hi from rowan
And Kenneth ur so gay.
Oh God get over it. You are obviously easily moved, this song is ridiculous. Glad a song sung by two drug addicted men in their prostitute about doing drugs can move you to tears. Nice buddy. Man up quit being a little crybaby.
My first memory I have stored in my small brain is my dad sitting by my bedside singing this song. He used to sing it to me almost every night. Lmao life was so simple. What even is 2020 anymore ?
Me too every night since I was 3 till I was 8 until my mom and him got devorced
Incredible how this song transports me back to the 'carefree' days of my youth in Ottawa Canada. I had the honour or meeting PPand M twenty some years ago when they performed at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa. Paul gave my friends and I an exclusive inteview for a local Contemporary Christian Music radio show....what an awesome gentleman. THey were sharing the stage with Pete Seeger....talk about Folk Music Royalty!! Thanks for posting this! God Bless!
It always has a tinge of loss and reminder of the sweetness of childhood...I was 14 when this came out...Even as a young teenager I was deeply saddened, reminded of my early childhood and playing with my favorite toys and stuffed animals now sitting lonely in a closet or on a shelf. I'm 75 and still shed a tear now and then.
After 50 odd years this still has the power to make me bubble 😢 xx good memories xx
It only took _sixty years_ to finally _really_ pay attention to the words and story. Great, now I'm a complete mess. Cried like a baby. 🍼 Did _not_ see that coming.
It was our top favorite, mommy and little me. Whenever it came on we dropped everything, ran to the radio and sang it together. Oh no here comes ugly tears round 2 . . .
Pure talent, no additional sound affects. This deserves appreciation!
In early April of1963, Peter, Paul and Mary came to my hospital room and sang Puff and Rain Rain Go Away! We had been in a terrible car accident and stopped on their way to the airport after their concert the night before in Daytona Beach, FL! They were awesome!
Always sad listening to this as a kid! 😢
Every time my kids play this song I get all emotional.
I just found a book that gives Puff a better ending, Jackie's daughter comes back to be with Puff again.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sing the song in the Present tense, then Puff is still alive !
Puff the magic dragon LIVES by the sea......
Puff the Magic Dragon walked out on the Strand.
He looked down and there he saw footprints in the sand.
A voice said Mr. Dragon, please don't be so sad.
My name is Jenny Paper.
I was sent here by my dad.
That so grand. He deserves a nice ending.
+C M Sounds like a plot "borrowing" from Peter Pan, where after a generation he returns and whisks off Wendy's daughter to Neverland.
so um whats the name of the book LOL
I remember that my mother used to sing this song to me...when i was a little boy ...it fucking hurts shes gone...I hear this song...and it makes me cry so much...and cry 😢 i wish I died..and not her..
I am almost 74 and this song I will never forget, it makes me cry at the end.
The more times I listen to this song the sadder, and more nostalgic it seems. Quite beautiful.

I wasn’t born in the 60s I grew up in the 2000s and still my dad and me always sing this it means so much to me honestly...
I was the same but it was my grandpa who sung it, which made it even more special. Even if i wasnt his blood-related grandkid, he would still sing to me a beautiful song. Made me feel belonged to his side of the family. The song seems to be special for everyone, its nice.

Born in 1953, as I grew up with music, loved this song, still do in 2021! Puff was a child's imagination! When we loose that we are hit with reality! Kids need to believe in fairy tales for a while! Real life is hard! This song was important!
I remember crying to this song when i was in elementry school. This exact video too.
너무 좋아요!
I am 50 years old and I will still sing this song with all my heart!!!!!!!!!

Such a sweet song about innocence lost! We as kids want to grow up, way too fast! Once an adult is forever, hope kids just enjoy being a kid as long as possible! I miss being a kid, which was so many years ago, still love this song!
As a child this was mine and my cousins favorite song. He lived his life in a wheel chair. He was only 12 when he passed. I cried so hard the day he died and was begging all the grown ups to please let me go to Honahlee with him. Now he has been gone for 45 years and I just bawled my heart out just now. Hearing this song brought back the good memories and the special times we shared together. Someday I'll really join him in Honahlee AKA Heaven
May your cousin rest in peace
So, love this as a old most 54, year old, born May 23rd 1968,! God Bless from northern Ireland UK, but 1st heard when I was a kid in the 70s, 🤝🇬🇧♥️
I am 58 and I cry when I hear this.It is a treasured childhood song.
Still remember my prep teacher pulling out her acoustic guitar and playing this song to us at least one a week. Good memories.
Was he Mr van Driessen by any chance😊
