The version I remember ended after the second eenie meenie miney mo. I don't remember ever hearing the second part. Growing up, my friends and I used to say, "Cross my heart and hope to die, stick a needle in my eye, eat a dirty rotten pie". I said it jokingly to one of my friends recently and he said he'd never heard of the pie bit before.

There's a nursery rhyme my dad used to sing to me about a doll made out of cardboard who washes his face and untangles his hair with an ivory comb. I was singing it to my friend's baby today and she mentioned that I skipped two verses. The rhyme she grew up with mentions the doll eating soup, but the one I heard growing up (and the one my dad heard from his dad) doesn't mention soup at all.
