In historical and dialectal British English, shab is a slang term for a mean, sorry, or pitiful fellow—essentially a contemptible or disreputable person. It is closely related to the word "shabby" and has roots in 17th to 19th-century slang.
Urban Dictionary describes it as the following: "A word to be shouted whenever you feel like it for no reason whatsoever." I don't think it has a meaning. Just... SHABBA!
