Binding to a static command from inside a DataTemplate

There are many references on SO about how to bind commands from your DataTemplate to your actual data class or container class but I couldn't find anything about static commands. And whatever I tried hadn't worked so far:

<ContentControl x:Class="MyClass" ...

  <ContentControl.Resources>
    <RoutedUICommand x:Key="DoCommand" Text="Command" />
  </ContentControl.Resources>

  <ContentControl.CommandBindings>
    <CommandBinding Command="{StaticResource DoCommand}" Executed="Command_Handler" />
  </ContentControl.CommandBindings>

  <SomeContainer>
    ...
    <DataTemplate ...>
       ...
       <Button Command="{StaticResource DoCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding}">
       <Button Command="{Binding DoCommand, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type local:MyClass}}}" CommandParameter="{Binding}">
       <Button Command="{Binding DataContext.DoCommand, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type local:MyClass}}}" CommandParameter="{Binding}">
       ...
    </DataTemplate>
  <SomeContainer>

  <Button Name="ThisWorks" Command="{StaticResource DoCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding}">

</ContentControl>

None of those template buttons work. The DataContext.DoCommand binding usually works in different scenarios but not with these static commands.
