Yeah, I know that. True it was written by Berlin in modern times. But it was written with the idea of bringing forth imagery and a sense of Christmases of old (pre- 20th century Christmases) particularly in rural areas where you just might need to hitch the horse to the sleigh if you planned to travel. The song may be fairly modern but the sentiments of the song take us to a snow covered landscape in days long gone.
