Need some advice on a subpoena?

I got issued a subpoena to appear as a witness to a sex abuse on a minor case. I know nothing about the case or what happened as i was working nights and only living next door so i saw nothing that went on in the house...All i know is what happened between the guy and I which wasn't much and has nothing to do with the case at hand. They want me to testify but i know nothing. What am i supposed to do???? any help would be appreciated i know i cannot get out of it nor am i trying, but I know absolutely nothing what to do?

Update:

If it helps any, The case is in Colorado

    You can call the District Attorney's Office and ask to speak to someone before the trial.

    Even though you don't think your testimony is relevant, it may be used to set the stage for the next witness.

    Of course, you have to answer the subpoena. which means you have to go to the time and place indicated. And you will be questioned. Just tell the truth. Weather your testimony has any value is not your call. Just tell the truth. Done.
