Usually the thing will start right up. If it does, it's the solenoid. The points inside it are dirty or pitted or whatever happens to them. It used to be a common problem. The fix is to replace the starter assembly, as sometimes it is the brushes on a dead spot in the starter.
The low battery idea is possible, but not likely. It never hurts to check all connections as well. Simply loosening and tightening nuts and bolts will do wonders.
