Stonewall Jackson (musician)

Stonewall Jackson (born November 6, 1932) was a Country musician.

Stonewall Jackson was one of the most popular country stars of the early 1960s. He was named after the famous general Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, who was an ancestor.

His most popular song was "Waterloo". The song predated the better known ABBA tune.

The song is a haunting but catchy tune which states that "Everybody has to meet his Waterloo", meaning their fate or comeuppance.

The song cites Adam, Napoleon and Tom Dooley as examples.
