Random Stevie Thoughts

[SapphireSister]

I don't know where it came from but I was walking to work today and all of the sudden I said to myself, "mistress of my fate!" so of course I automatically thought of The Dealer and that this was some sort of sign that I need to know what this song is about and that there's something significant about it for me. I've never felt this way before about The Dealer, it never stood out to me although I know it's a fan favorite. I tried analyzing the lyrics and now I'm even more confused. I know it's some metaphor for a card shark or such but what the heck is this song about? Can any of you share your insights and opinions please!!
