Puff The Magic Dragon

I remember this song was a children's chorus standard in the 80s. I remember singing it... anyone else?

I remember singing it... course I also remember attributing it to smoking time.

Little kids in school singing about smoking pot. Priceless!

i had no idea wtf pot was back then.

yeah, I had some odd exposures when I was younger.I used to think that I had led a sheltered life and that my parents had been wickedly strict but when it comes down to it, I really got to see alot of the world,... good bad and ugly.

I have an older cousin who used to sing that song all the time as a kid, it used to drive everyone crazy!

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea...

That's all I remember

 

[MoonOwl]

It still makes me cry when I hear it....

I never attributed it to smoking pot. I've always thought it was about leaving your childhood imagination behind and growing into adulthood where reality and responsibility crush down the Magic that is still possible in the mind of a child.
