Ah, "Puff, the Magic Dragon," by Peter, Paul, and Mary — what a stone-cold '60s classic. And, what's more, a family-friendly classic about a young boy and his loyal dragon friend and their adventures together. Beautiful. No wonder it flew up the charts shortly after its release in 1963, peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March of that year and staying on the chart for a total of 14 weeks. All very wholesome ... but it's actually about smoking dope, isn't it?
