Did you check to see if the battery is charged?

Did you try jumping it with another car?

Quick guess...
If its not your starter making that noise, nor in your steering column... i'd look at the starter relay

It should have plenty of juice because I've been driving it everything else turns on.

Could be bad alternator; not charging battery properly, or you have a loose battery cable, the sound could be from a weak battery.
