Back in the 'old days' non-amplified was the only option - battery-operated amps for guitar + voice did not exist.
Two things: find a quieter place (a busy street corner or subway stop is not good!) and learn to project your vocals and don't be constantly looking around, keep your head pointed straight ahead, same as your guitar - pretend there's a too-soft mic right in front of you.
