I need help I have looked every where. 80's song that is a dance rap version of The Champs Tequila. Anyone know who or name??

This probably isn't it, but... how about Klute, "Tequila Slammer"? I've got it tagged as from an album called "Excepted". Pretty decent cover. Can't say I'd call it "rap" (the only lyrics are, as in the original, "Tequila!"), but it's dancey and could pass for 80s/90s synthpop, albeit with a somewhat grindy industrial edge.
(Unfortunately for you) it's been covered millions of times. I still have a vinyl version of the 1962 "Telstar" album by the Ventures. (Which may or may not have been the first cover - but the original by the Champs was from 1958.)

Maybe PeeWees Big Top Adventure? I think Pee Wee Herman did a version in that.
