"The Music Man."
Trouble by Ray Lamontagne
The song is from the Broadway musical Evita, and is personally my favorite :)

River Song is played by Alex Kingston.
It's a short song called Trouble on Wheels, written by Joey Scarbury.
The phrase comes from a song in Meredith Wilson's The Music Man titled "Trouble" and also referred to as "Ya Got Trouble" or "Trouble in River City." It is sung by the character Harold Hill (a con-man/traveling salesman pretending to be a music professor). Through the lyrics of the song, Hill persuades the parents of River City that the new billiard table in town is a threat to the moral fiber of the River City youth, verbally illustrating a catastrophic decline of conservative, turn of the century values. All this, of course, is setting the stage for his alternative, wholesome pastime - a boy's band - for which he will sell uniforms and musical instruments. My interpretation of the phrase, as used today in a colloquial context, is that it refers to an exaggerated problem, or an unfounded, petty, mass hysteria. This of course, is open to interpretation.
I don't know of any that early, but in the 1950' s we had ' Showboat' and tte song "Old Man River" and in the 1970's we had 'Big River' with the song 'River In The Rain'.
The song Yellow River by musical artist Christie can be listened to on a couple of sites on the web. Along with radio site Last FM, there is the option of Myspace.

There's a recording by Rev. J. C. Burnett Vol 2 1927-1945 where he preaches/sings 'I don't want no trouble at the river". Hard to figure out the song, though. I saw it on itunes. "No Trouble at the river" was written by James Cleveland and is sang by the GMWA National Mass Choir. It is on the CD entitled "Torchbears of Excellence".
The song "Anything You Can Do (I Can Do Better)" is a song in the musical Annie Get Your Gun. The song was written by Irving Berlin in 1946.
