Songs That End With A "Cha Cha Cha" Beat

I'm looking to make a list of songs that end with an instrumental "cha cha cha". 
Best example would be the ending of It's Now or Never by Elvis.

Not looking for the words cha cha cha in the song, only the Cha Cha Cha instrumental ending.

A few to get the list going:

Oh Carol - Neil Sedaka
Norman - Sue Thompson
Calcutta - Lawrence Welk
Sway - Bobby Rydel
Wheels - The String a Longs
Easier Said Than Done - The Essex
I've Had It - The Bell Notes

Would it have to be three beats to qualify as a "Cha Cha"?
Don't know how this entered my mind Saturday evening, but I thought of:
"I'm Gonna Knock on Your Door" - Eddie Hodges

Susie Baby - Bobby Vee

Isn't it interesting that Sam Cooke's "Everybody Loves to Cha Cha Cha" does not end with a cha Cha Cha but just fades out instead.

Similarly, Bobby Rydell's "The Cha-Cha-Cha" also just fades out. And the biggest cha cha-titled hit of all, Tommy Dorsey Orchestra's "Tea For Two Cha Cha", has a cold ending that doesn't qualify either.
