Craps Senryu String

So we’re coming out? Here’s my bet on the pass line. I’m going to shoot? That’s just fine with me! Luck be a lady tonight! Let me come out right! I need a seven I could use an eleven Either one is good. Okay, here we go! Baby needs a pair of shoes! Seven-eleven! What do we have here? Three and a four makes seven Oh, Hallelujah! Baby, let it ride Seven-eleven we want! Here we go again! Oh, so we have nine That was a centerfield roll! Let’s try to make it. We will need some odds. Ten times odds at this table? One hundred behind. Fifty-four across We can use a nice long roll! Baby, please be nice! We must get them hot Get winners for all we’ve got Here we go again. A nine will be fine How did Jesse James get shot? With a forty-five! Tell me what it is Another seven so soon? It’s all down the drain! Forget it today Luck has been a bad lady It’s time we go home!
