Connect the positive lead to the battery or a spare positive terminal at the fuse panel, run it to the switch with an in-line fuse, run from there to the positive terminal on the horn. Mount the horn and connect the ground wire to ground on the chassis.
if the horn is already there and is bad, just disconnect the two wires on it, unscrew horn, remove it and reinstall the new one and reconnect the wires. If you don't have a horn, then find a suitable place under the hood and drill X number of holes. The switch is wired in series with the battery and horn. The button is placed at a convenient place you can get to it when you want to blow the horn.
Horn button is a momentary switch. Yours sounds stuck. Check the contacts. Once it grounds, the horn blows & sounds grounded.
You don't have to unplug the horn to replace the battery.

To wire up a car horn with a button you first need to run one of the wires from the horn to the battery. Take 1of the wires from the horn and run it to where you want the button to go. Connect the wire to the button and that's it.
You may have the wires for your horn crossed with the battery wire. This would cause the horn to go off any time the battery is connected.
On a vehicle, the return path to the battery is through the vehicle's framework. The negative terminal of the battery is connected to the frame of the vehicle. The reason there is only one terminal on the horn is that, that is all that is needed to make the horn operate. Applying the positive side of the battery to the single terminal which is connected to the horn's coil will make it operate. When the horn is bolted to the vehicle this completes the circuit back to the negative terminal of the battery. Apply the 12VDC to the horn by pressing on the horn button which closes the circuit and the horn activates. A horn with only one terminal has its coil grounded internally within the horn. A horn with two terminals has the coil isolated from the ground. On a two terminal horn there needs to be a wire installed to the frame on one of the terminals to make the horn operate.
it is easier to repair the OEM horn assembly than to "rig" up a button
Run a direct wire from the battery to the horn, if it works the problem is in the horn button or the fuse.

If everything checks out, replace the horn.
