If someone keeps to the straight and narrow, he or she behaves in a way to avoid trouble and tries to behave properly or correctly. Basically it means to lead an honest and morally acceptable way of life. Okay. Let's take a look a few of the examples here. Number one. If you want to avoid trouble in your life, you should not take drugs or break the law. You know, so this is someone giving advice. Just keep to the straight and narrow. So this is just the way we might hear it used. Or number two. After Jane's husband got out of jail, he swore to her ... so he made a solemn or serious promise to her, he was a changed man. So he's not the same man he was before. He's a changed man. He changed his ways. He says he will keep to the straight and narrow and be a law-abiding citizen. Remember law-abiding is he will obey the law. He won't be out there breaking the law anymore. He will be a law-abiding citizen. He will stick to the straight and narrow. Okay. Anyway I hope you got it. I hope it's clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
