The composer - Artur Gold and the lyricist - Andrzej Wlast - were the enormously famous and talented Tango "duo" in Warsaw from 1929 - 1939 where many other equally talented composers and lyricists came up with the most beautiful Tangos ever written - totally on par with other famous Tango greats in Argentina, France and other countries where Tango was popular.
As every wildly popular song does - this Tango also "spawned" lots of parodies. One of them comes up with a twisted title which reads: "It's a Shame You Were Born - To Cause Problems - Woman". The lyricist - Andrzej Wlast was also a celebrated producer of popular cabaret shows - attended by most A-listers of all the important layers of Warsaw's upper crust - circa 1929 - 1939 - so he could get a date with a lot of Warsaw's talented beauties of the day.
However - it was widely rumored that he fell hard for a beautiful chorus girl - Vera Bobrowska who loved her "career" a lot more than any men in her tempestuous life. Even though - according to their contemporaries - she was gifted with very minimal performing talents - nevertheless - being blessed instead - with tons of self-promotion "gifts" - she managed to be a "hot" performer for quite a few years.
