Check to see if the belt that drives the alternator is loose, glazed or even missing. Replace it if that is the prolbem. The best way to check the tightness of the belt is to push on it in the middle with your finger (car not running, of course). It should have a little give to it, but not a lot.
If the belt looks okay, take the battery out of the car and go with a friend to Autozone. They will test the battery to see if you need a new one.
The last thing it could be is a bad alternator. I think Autozone can test your alternator as well. Not hard to replace, but be sure to disconnect the battery cables before removing the alternator. Never remove or install the alternator with the battery cables attached to the battery. Very easy to damage the alternaotr or the fusible link in the battery cable that way.
