Well it appears to at least be semi-based on the WB character, the spoken lines by 'Speedy' in the song were appearantly voiced by Mel Blanc.

According to this, Speed was first created in 1952 (though his design was different at first, and was revamped in 1955 to what we normal picture him as). The song hit the charts in 1962.
