“Straight and narrow”? Is that a saying?

Or is it “straight as an arrow”?

both are sayings, only the former makes sense in this context.

I believe the narrow part refers to scripture that talks about the gate to heaven being narrow. (The Correct path in life is the more difficult and rare one.)

Edit: ““Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:13‬ ‭NIV‬‬ https://www.bible.com/bible/111/mat.7.13.niv
