Due to a woman's hips being wider than a mans, in the olden days they were referred to as broads. A tough old broad is an older woman who has seen the hardships throughout history (wars, depressions, the birth of Ryan Seacrest etc) an has kept on keeping on, despite all odds. She can chew up a tin can and spit out fishing hooks if she feels like it.
Check out that tough old broad, she must be like 80 but she just handknitted a shotgun and killed that mugger.
I still carry a torch for her fifteen years later. Even though we were only together for two weeks. Remembering her laughing eyes and all we said...
As all my thoughts of her pass 'fore my face a thousand times
The way they race my heart... I cannot say it all in lines
