The Fiddler
Mark Knopfler - https://youtu.be/7msA3C4jrT8
The meaning of the song is:
no matter how successful or rich you are, eventually you have to suffer and one day you're surely gonna die (But either on the strip or on the edge of town, everybody pays).
This song was written after a bike accident when Mark Knopfler broke his shoulder, his collarbone and some ribs. There was some doubt if he would ever be able to play guitar again and he recovered fully (I got shot off my horse, So what? I'm up again and playing in one of these big saloons on main) and (Everybody has to leave some blood here on the floor). The accident makes him aware of his own mortality (Nobody's driving me underground. Not yet anyway).
Actually, I think the gambling is only a metaphor for life!
