| rdfs:comment | - Pecos Bill is an animated short from the film Melody Time. It was reissued as a stand-alone short on February 19, 1954.
- Born in Texas in the 1830's, Pecos Bill fell out of his family’s covered wagon near the Pecos River and was raised by coyotes, but he later found his brother who informed him he was not a coyote. He grew up to be an American cowboy during American westward expansion into the Southwest of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. He had a horse named Widow Maker who only Pecos Bill could survive riding and love interest named Slue Foot Sue. He was legendary for feats such as using a rattlesnake for a lasso, riding a mountain lion, and riding a tornado whirlwind like a bronco.
- Pecos Bill is a handsome, polite, tough, kind, brave, caring, rough, funny, mysterious, heroic American cowboy of all the Old West in Texas. He is 12 years old. He is very slender. He is muscular. His birthday is January 17, 1936. He has blonde hair, blue eyes, a black cowboy hat, a pink long-sleeved shirt, a gray vest, a green bandanna, blue jeans, gray chaps, black boots, and a pair of brown pistol hostlers. He likes to catch evil rustlers, yodel, and do some heroic deeds, but most likely of all, Slue-Foot Sue, a strange, yet beautiful cowgirl from in the middle of nowhere. He dislikes her leave straight up to the moon due to his horse and trusty sidekick Widowmaker and dying of thirst.
- Annie Sue and the Muppets sing "Pecos Bill" to Wally Boag for the closing number in episode 520 of The Muppet Show, while Wally dispenses of some several dozens of teeth.
- The segment is a retelling of the famous roughest, toughest cowboy in the west, Pecos Bill and his trusty steed Widowmaker. Roy Rogers and the Sons of the Pioneers explain to two kids at their campsite why coyotes howl at night and end up retelling the story of Pecos Bill. The segment explains life of Pecos and how some of the West's famous landmarks and features have come to be, because of Pecos Bill. Sue expertly rides the violently bucking horse until the sympathetic bouncing in her bussle launches her off Widowmaker sky-high, with each bounce launching her higher and higher.

| abstract | - Pecos Bill is an animated short from the film Melody Time. It was reissued as a stand-alone short on February 19, 1954.
- The segment is a retelling of the famous roughest, toughest cowboy in the west, Pecos Bill and his trusty steed Widowmaker. Roy Rogers and the Sons of the Pioneers explain to two kids at their campsite why coyotes howl at night and end up retelling the story of Pecos Bill. The segment explains life of Pecos and how some of the West's famous landmarks and features have come to be, because of Pecos Bill. The feature takes a turn when Pecos falls in love with Slue-Foot Sue. This makes Widowmaker feel abandoned and jealous of Sue for stealing his best friend. Bill and Sue plan on getting married but she insists on wearing a bussel on her backside made from metal and springs. She also wants to get married while riding Widowmaker which makes Widowmaker more angry than ever. Sue expertly rides the violently bucking horse until the sympathetic bouncing in her bussle launches her off Widowmaker sky-high, with each bounce launching her higher and higher. The town thought all was lost for Sue, but Pecos did not sweat it, for he (a the greatest champeen of the lasso) was going to effortlessly catch her with his trusty rope... but shockingly, he missed! No one who witnessed it could ever figure out how it happened, but the viewers can see that it was Widowmaker who purposely stepped on Pecos' rope preventing it from reaching Sue. With Pecos unable to arrest her ascent, Sue kept going higher and higher until she finally landed on the moon, "and that's where she stayed". The narrator then relates that Pecos left civilization and would howl at the moon every night, with his coyote brothers joining in sympathy; and that is the reason that to this very day, coyotes howl at the Moon that way. The segment and the film end with Roy Rogers and the Pioneers reprising the song Blue Shadows On the Trail.
