I bought a microphone and I don't know how to plug it in?

Okay so, I'm new with microphones and stuff. So, I bought a SHURE SM-58 mic. I thought it would work with my Dean guitars amp but I guess not. It has an XLR connector on the bottom, but it doesn't come with any cord and I don't know what to plug it into. Can somebody tell me how I can talk into this microphone, easily and step-by-step? Thanks.
If it won't work in my Dean amp, what do I need to buy for it to work?

Unless your Dean amp has a preamp mic input, it won't work no matter what cable you use. The mic it's self doesn't have enough output to drive an amp.
