you have a short somewhere. follow the starter cables and see if you can find a chaffed wire.

Fallow what drew said and check all cables to and from starter. If not starter. Check all wires on the solenoid end. To and from. Have you done anything to make any cable or wire shorter to where it rubs and may have warn a hole?
