Theme Song Lyrics

Yipee yi-o ki-a

Galloping all the way

Great big star on his chest

Outdraws all of the rest

Fastest gun in the west

Yipee yi-o ki-a

Riding around your way

Here comes Quick Draw McGraw

The high-falutin'est

Fastest shootin'est

Cowboy you ever saw

That's Quick Draw McGraw

Legacy
Quick Draw, Baba Looey, Augie Doggie, Doggie Daddy, Snooper and Blabber would go on to make several appearances as either co-stars or guest stars in several subsequent crossover TV series and TV movies that followed in the decades to come from Hanna-Barbera right until the 1990s. Except for Snooper and Blabber, they also all guest starred in the 2000s spinoff parody series Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law on Adult Swim.

There have been several attempts to revive Quick Draw McGraw for a new audience but every attempt to do so has been shot down by either Hanna-Barbera or Warner Bros. Many of the projects included a 1980s TV film that Tom Ruegger and John K. Ludin originally pitched, but Joseph Barbera wasn't interested and instead tasked them with an idea he had called The Good, the Bad, and the Huckleberry. a 90s TV special or movie that never made it past the concept art, a TV special in the same vein as The Flintstones: On the Rocks, and a spaghetti western series made by Book of Life and El Tigre creator Jorge R Gutiérrez.

Every character in the series, except Snuffles, appears in the 2021 HBO Max original series Jellystone! Snooper, Baba Looey, and Augie were also changed to females in the series.
