Searching for old Hawaiian song, lyrics

My mom used to play Hawaiian music back in the 50's/early 60's. We remember her at the kitchen sink, with a song that sounded like a chant sung by a group of Hawaiian men. Part of the words chanted were "'git away 'git away, HEE." It scared the pants off our friend who thought Mom was yelling at her. :) It might be similar to the Hawaiian War Chant, which I do have. Or maybe it is another version of it sung by someone I don't have. Music I DO have from that time is "Song of Hawaii" by Lani McIntire, and Songs of the South Seas, by Ray Kinney. Does this ring a bell with anyone? Thanks!
