    Three songs, with the chorus occurring in the third song three times. Love me a Macca suite.

    Think Domino also applies. There are a couple chorus-like bits, but the most obvious one is at the very end of the song.

    This is the chorus (x3):

    I got a woman, want to ball all day
    I got a woman, she won't be true
    I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
    I said I got a little woman and she won't be true

    Cuban Son Montuno fits your description to a T, with lots of wonderful adlibbing for spice, of course:

    Yet they’re both repeated throughout the song, not just at the end.

    Walk On The Ocean by Toad The Wet Sprocket is a very clear verse/chorus/verse/chorus/solo/verse thing, at least on the studio version. Just as the big final chorus looms, the song ends.

    Correct, looking for songs that only have the chorus at the end, nowhere else in the song. In other words, the whole song is all verses until the end when they keep repeating the chorus over and over. 3 Dog Night's "Celebrate" is a good example like in the original post

    Then I name "Joyful the sound, the word goes around, from father to son, to son. Kings will be crowned, the word goes around, from father to son, to son" as one of my favorite codas.

    Unless you bought the single (with the “Single Version”), which has that final chorus you’re expecting.
