Best answer: A youtube comment says it's The Money Chant by Robbie Robertson.

Related information: when the movie premiered, that scene and that "song" got a lot of attention. Matthew McConaughey was asked about the song over and over again during interviews.

He explained that its inclusion in the movie was completely unscripted. The chest-beating chant was his own personal warm up ritual, a relaxation technique he's been doing for years, off-camera.

Leonardo DiCaprio caught him at it one day and made McConaughey do it in the scene- and that's the take that Scorsese used. McConaughey seemed a bit embarrassed by the public fascination with it.

The video where McConaughey tells that story is here, if you're interested.
