Sounds like your battery is dead. I would install a new one.

Your battery is going dead. You might have an electrical drain somewhere in the system also for it to drain out the battery like that. You could get a battery jump and drive it to a mechanic to check out. You could get another battery and see if that is the problem. If you don't have enough cranking power to turn the engine over the lights will come on for a little bit. Also, how old is the battery? How many months' life was it guaranteed for? A battery's life is only as good as the life is posted. If you buy a 3 year battery don't expect it to work for 4 years.

Everyone is right on target, you could have an alternator gone bad, and or a bad battery.

If you get it jump started, and it continues to die, that will indicate your alternator is not working and the battery is providing the spark to keep the engine running. The battery can't do that for very long!

I would do as suggested above, try to jump start it and get to an auto parts store or repair shop and have them check the electrical system.
