Sounds as if the alternator is not charging. You may just need new brushes for the alternator depending on the wear on its whatisitsname shaft thing :-)
Does the charge light come on when the car is running (it may be faint if the alternator is only partially charging). Make sure the bulb works. It should come when you turn the key but before you start the engine.
Hope someone else may have a different idea.
