Sounds like you have a problem in your headlight switch. As far as them staying on sometimes when you shut the car off are you referring to daytime running lamps or the regular headlights? If it's daytime running lamps that like to stay on and your headlights do not like to turn on then there could be a combination of headlight switch and daytime running lamp relay.

It is possible the relay gets the signal from the headlight switch as well, since they generally turn off when you turn your headlights on.

Headlights do not work, high beams will not stay on
check fuses and relay first if good than more than likely---if when u use lever to turn on but wont stay on or dont go on at all would show that the multi switch (inside column ) either broke (plastic) or wore out ---
