It's no secret that Jimmy Fallon has a history of recording fun holiday tunes with A-list musicians, such as "Almost Too Early For Christmas" with Dolly Parton in 2022.

How Meghan Trainor and Jimmy Fallon's wrote their Christmas song, "Wrap Me Up"
On a November 13 episode of Tonight Show, Fallon explained the backstory behind what Fallon described as a "Christmas banger."
"If you know me, you know that I love the holidays. I love holiday music, and if it were up to me, I would listen to 'Jingle Bells' in August," Fallon said. "I've always wanted to do something with Meghan Trainor. She's a friend of the show, she's an amazing performer, songwriter, and she said, 'Yeah, I'd be down to do something with you. What ideas do you have, for like a holiday song?'"
Fallon continued, "So I sent her a voice memo of me on the phone. I go, 'Maybe it's something about wrapping gifts...'"
Fallon added, "I didn't hear back from Meghan. Then all of a sudden, a few weeks later, I get a call from Meghan. And she goes, 'Hey, I took your idea, and instead of Wrap It Up, I made it into Wrap Me Up, like I'm the gift."

Meghan Trainor and Jimmy Fallon's "Wrap Me Up" lyrics
Here's the lyrics to "Wrap Me Up," composed by Jimmy Fallon, Meghan Trainor, Sean Douglas and Gian Stone
It's Christmastime, my dear
And we said no gifts this year
I got one question, if you'd let me
What did you get me?
Is it a tie? (No) an ugly sweater? (Nuh-uh)
Matching pajamas? (No) so something better? (Uh-huh)
Is it boujee like Gucci? (No, ooh) man, I thought I had it
No, baby, you're looking at it
Come on, wrap me up (wrap me up) in your arms this Christmas
Wrap me up (wrap me up), you don't need a wishlist
Wrap me up (wrap me up), it's like Christmas magic
Wrap me up (wrap me up), I'm the whole damn package
Come on, wrap me up (wrap me up), I'll go get the ribbons
Wrap me up (wrap me up), honey, you don't get it
Wrap me up (wrap me up), you already have it
Wrap me up (wrap me up)
I'm the whole damn package (I see where you're going, whoa-oh)
Come on and wrap me up, wrap me up, baby (uh-huh)
Come on and wrap me up, wrap me up, baby (baby)
You made the Nice List and I know you've been waiting (whoo)
Yeah, I'm a nice gift and I know how to shake it
We're decking halls, 'cause Santa's coming Christmas Eve (ah-ah)
Big shiny balls, all up on that Christmas tree
Eggnog in my cup, got them carols turning way up
And I don't need much, but what you'd get me? (Come on)
Is it a drone? (No) a new razor? (Nuh-uh)
Is it a fancy manscaper with the laser? (Uh-huh)
A Maserati? Bugatti? (No), man, I thought I had it
Oh, no, baby, you're looking at it (I'm getting close though)
Come on, wrap me up (wrap me up) in your arms this Christmas (whoo)
Wrap me up (wrap me up), you don't need a wishlist (oh)
Wrap me up (wrap me up), it's like Christmas magic (ah-oh)
Wrap me up (wrap me up), I'm the whole damn package (ah)
Come on, wrap me up (wrap me up, c'mon), I'll go get the ribbons
Wrap me up (wrap me up), honey, you don't get it (whoa-oh)
Wrap me up (wrap me up), you already have it (oh)
Wrap me up (wrap me up), I'm the whole damn package (oh-oh)
Come on and wrap me up, wrap me up, baby (uh-huh)
Come on and wrap me up, wrap me up, baby (whoa-oh)
You made the Nice List and I know you've been waiting (uh-huh)
Yeah, I'm a nice gift and I know how to shake it
I wanna wrap you up (hey), wrap you up, baby
I wanna wrap you up (come on and wrap me up), wrap you up, baby (whoa-oh)
I made the Nice List and you know I've been waiting (yeah)
Yeah, you're a nice gift and you know how to shake it
