It goes:
The child takes the nurse
The nurse takes the dog
The dog takes the cat
The cat takes the rat
The rat takes the cheese
The cheese stands alone
It must have taken quite a few children to play this, as it involves adding new people to the dancing line until all the chosen ones are circling around the solitary cheese (who then, I presume, becomes the next farmer).
