Sousa quoted two songs to construct this march. The first strain quotes "When a Wooer Goes a-Wooing" from Gilbert and Sullivan's The Yeomen of the Guard.

Around this time, John Philip Sousa began composing many of his most famous patriotic marches, including "The Stars and Stripes Forever" and "The Washington Post March." Such songs as "The Black KPs", likely labelled racist and offensive by modern listeners, were intended to rally the public behind the war effort. [5]
