first of all you should eat and then eat some more(i'm talking only clean food)

you should of course lift weights, i'd recommend(especially if you are a beginner) doing full body workouts 3 times per week with compound excercises(bench press, deadlift, militiray press, rows ..)

i think also that anyone should do cardio, this means running or walkin or bicycling or aerobic classes first of all for health reasons and also to ive you a reason to.....eat some more..but since your skinny,limit your weekly cardio to 3 times a week, 20-30 minutes each time in a moderate pace...
