Almost. "Du" does mean "you" but "hasst" means "hate". Not "have".

So basically the guy shouted "you" and the Germans shouted back "you hate".

Almost. The song is called "Du hast" not "Du hasst". The double meaning of hast (have) and hasst (hate) is still the main wordplay in the song though

Du hast recht.
