Whats the name of a Cajun sounding country song with an accordion in it?

The song has a fast-sounding accoridion, played in a cajun style tune. The man singing says something similar to “You must not know me if you don’t like me” or “you dont like me because you dont know me”. The way this guy sings it is unique and sorta funny. I’m pretty sure its a decently farmiliar song, because I’ve heard it on the radio sporadically
