In the back woods of Kentucky, a redneck's wife went into labor in the middle of the night, and the doctor was called out to assist in the delivery. Since there was no electricity, the doctor handed the father-to-be a lantern and said, "Here, you hold this high so I can see what I am doing. "
Soon, a baby boy was brought in to the world. "Whoa there, " said the doctor, "Don't be in such a rush to put that lantern down. I think there's another one coming."
Sure enough, within minutes he delivered a baby girl. "Hold that lantern up, don't set it down; there's another one! " said the doctor. And within a few minutes, he had delivered another baby girl. "No, no don't be in a hurry to put down that lantern, it seems there's yet another one coming! " cried the doctor.
The redneck scratched his head in bewilderment, and asked the doctor, "You reckon it might be the light that's attractin' 'em?"
