This song is about a fictional steam ship I wrote a story about.
The story inspired this song. The name `Vendia` means `seller, giver.
The ship embarked on a journey from England in 1837 and crashed into rocks
within a few thousand feet from its destination in Cape Cod. That`s the story.
There is no chorus in this song; it has a middle 8 though;
inspired by `Abraham, Martin, and John` by Dion DiMucci.

The music and lyrics were Written by a 13 year old guy By the name of Ryan Downing.
       This kid is one talented guy and he has a bright future.
                This is a great Song.

 Sir can you tell me the news from the port

 Too soon I know that I should be,  in worry

 For a crew so wise, and ship as strong as she
