Deep in the backwoods of Tennessee, a hillbilly’s wife went into labour late one night. With no electricity for miles, the doctor was called out and handed the nervous father a lantern.
“Hold this up high,” the doctor said, “so I can see what I’m doing.”
Before long, a baby boy was delivered.
“Whoa now,” said the doctor. “Don’t put that lantern down just yet — looks like there’s another one coming.”
Sure enough, minutes later, a baby girl arrived.
“Keep that lantern up!” the doctor barked. “There’s another one!”
Moments later, a third baby was born.
“Don’t you dare lower that light,” the doctor shouted. “I think there’s another one on the way!”
The hillbilly scratched his head, stared at the lantern, and said,
“Doc… you reckon it might be the light that’s attractin’ ’em?”
