Have Love Will Travel (The Sonics cover) Lyrics

If you need lovin’, oh baby I travel.
I travel from maine down to mexico
To find that girl that loves me so
No matter where I'll be I'll find that girl
and she satisfy me
Have love, will travel.
If you need lovin, oh baby I travel
If you need lovin, oh baby I travel
I took a boat and I took a plane
I might hitch-hike or jump a railroad-train
Your kind of love drive a man insane
So look for me walkin' just any old way
Have love, will travel
If you need lovin, oh baby I travel
If you need lovin, oh baby I travel

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
