2001 Ford Expedition V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

My car would not start yesterday and today it started but as soon as I started to drive it it felt like it didn't want to accelerate. It eventually started shaking and finally shut off while it was in drive. I turned the key and it sounded like when a car has run out of gas but then it stared and as soon as I put it into gear("drive") it shut off.
