Or you have a dead battery.
Do the headlights AND horn work? If they don't or are weak, you probably have a bad battery or bad battery connections.

Try standing in front of the car with the headlights on, and have someone try and start the car. If the headlights dim way down, it's probably a battery issue. If they don't dim at all, it's probably a starter issue. If it's the starter, try rapping it pretty good with a hammer. If it works, you need a new starter.
