[Verse 1]
If you want to be loved
Baby, you've got to love me too
If you want to be loved
Baby, you've got to love me too
Oh yeah, 'cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

[Verse 2]
If you want to be kissed
Well, you've got to kiss me too
Oh yeah, if you want to be kissed
Well, you've got to kiss me too
Oh yeah, 'cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

[Chorus]
Well, fair exchange bears no robbery
And the whole world will know that it's true
Understanding solves all problems, baby
That's why I'm telling you

[Verse 3]
If you want to be hugged
Well, you got to hug me, too
Oh yeah, if you want to be hugged
Well, you've got to hug me, too
Oh yeah, 'cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

[Interlude]
Yeah

[Verse 4]
Well, if you know you can't take it
Baby, why try to give it?
If you know you can't take it
Then baby, why try to give it?
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

[Chorus]
Well, fair exchange bears no robbery
And the whole world will know that it's true
Understanding solves all problems, baby
That's why I'm telling you

[Verse 5]
If you want to be hugged
Well, you got to hug me, too
Oh yeah, if you want to be hugged
Well, you've got to hug me, too
Oh yeah, 'cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
