Bite his toe?

I love hanging out with a three year old! This is what she sang to me in the car today--"Eenie meenie miny moe, catch a tigger, bite his toe, if he hollaas let him go..." Apparently I've been wrong all these years. Now I know it is BITE HIS TOE? For some silly reason I always thought it was "by his toe." Good thing she set me straight!
