O-e-ah, e-o-ah.

Another answer

FROM IMDB

"They include "All we own, we owe her"; "Oh we love the old one"; and "Oh we loathe the old one." The screenplay shows that the correct lyrics are "O-Ee-Yah! Eoh-Ah!." The chant acts as a sort of audio inkblot."

But one must consider that IMDB is a user-written source, which may not be accurate. I have searched the screenplay and have found no such lyrics for the Winkies' marching chant. (The guards were called the Winkies)

My BEST ANSWER: I personally knew Meinhardt Raabe, who played the Munchkin Coroner, ("She's most sincerely dead!") ...he, obviously WAS THERE... and he told me they were chanting, "Oh-We-Love...The-Old-One --Oh-We-Love...The-Old-One!" referring to the Wicked Witch Of The West. (Margaret Hamilton). Mr. Raabe died in April of 2010 at the age of 94.

I trust the WITNESS to the filming more than any internet database (IMDB).
